:wtf: Malaysia Airlines Plane "Vanishes" en Route to Beijing with 239 Aboard
- Thread starter Serious
- Start date
We have a saying:
The most dangerous part of your flight, is the drive to the Airport
For the people who are scarred of flying...
Flying in on a commercial aircraft has NEVER BEEN SAFER!
There are over 90,000 commercial flights a day worldwide and 27,000 domestically...
Outside of the Asiana Incident,
We haven't had one since 2009
Colgan Air Flight 3407...
...which crashed near Buffalo, killing 50 people, on Feb. 12, 2009.
The pilot’s maneuver was the opposite of what he should have done when ice formed on the wings.
Involving a major carrier domestically...
Not since 2001
You can do the math on flights per death and see its low number
Statistically...
You have more of a chance of dying from the food on-board than being involved in an accident.
Air travel is the second-safest mode of mass transportation in the world.
This is second only to the escalator and elevator.
Your chances of being involved in an aircraft accident are approximately 1 in 11 million.
Your chances of being killed in an automobile accident are 1 in 5000.
Lets look at statistics...
Looking at Commercial Jet Airplane Accidents - Worldwide Operations 2001 to 2010,
17% occur in the takeoff phase (10% on takeoff and 7% on initial climb) accounting for 25% of the fatalities.
During the landing phase, there are 36% of the accidents (14% during the final approach and 22% during landing), accounting for 24% of the fatalities.
This means that there is a greater chance of being in an accident during the landing phase but the likelihood of being a fatality is approximately the same.

I don't think the phone ringing means much

@Poitier posted this in the TLR thread... Missing Malaysia Airlines plane: Family of Chinese passenger says mobile phone working
So are they sure he brought his phone with him?
Also, this "Desperate family members have asked Malaysia Airlines to use satellite technology to pick up the mobile phone signals of passengers before their phones run out of batteries"
...Is a good idea.
International flights scare the shyt out of me for real
Definitely seems as if there's a different element, in terms of passengers, on those planes.
Airports and airplanes have always been kinda weird to me. Just a lot of nervous energy and tension. There's an uneasiness. And an unfamiliar type of people...if that makes sense.
I like watching the planes take off, though.

Plane explodes in mid-air=Phone explodes...straight to voicemail
Plane hits water and dosen't explode but is in the deep ocean=straight to voicemail....
Plane hits water and explodes=straight to voicemail..............

If there is certainty that he brought it, and boarded the plane with it (although tough to be certain of), then it means a lot.
I hope they in the jungle or some shyt.....

Plane breaks into sections = phone survives and rings
Phone is packed into carry on bag, plane explodes = phone survives and rings
Phones in cases are durable, I had a phone fall in the toliet ring and receive calls but they couldn't hear me talk

So how doesn't that mean anything?

If this is true how could it not mean anything?
If the passenger phone rings, could it be possible to trace the call using the satellite technology. Maybe we could ask the NSA to help. I heard their pretty good with tracing calls.

...my apologies...
Actually some truth to your post about "not meaning anything"...
I was thinking that just because there is ringing heard on the caller's end doesn't necessarily mean the cell phone is ringing. It actually happens often with folks I know, and they don't have service and it's not ringing on their end. I still say that trying to pick up any mobile phone sigs is a good idea.
