No parachutes because passengers would need to be orderly and patient. If they can't do that under regular conditions how would we expect them to do same in an emergency? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Originalsly: Exactly, there will be panic, rush and the plane wont be stable. Spinning, nose diving and like that. Jumping is impossible. 1 Like |

If commercial airplanes need to be safer, Edo state is where to go. Benin kingdom to be precise. Teleportation can be found there or a situation whereby everyone can be given a magical APC broom to fly out when a crash is inevitable |

sleekydee1: A single Martin baker ejection seat cost about 200thousand dollars to purchase and it very bulky meaing there is no airline that can afford to install so many seats on a single plane plus the cost of modification to the air frame so the seats can exit safely...The weight of the seats would also be to much additional wieght for a commercial airline where weight ratios are the most important factors in safety and fuel consumption 2 Likes |

Make passengers be like buhari who carry the child school bag thinking it was a parachute ooo |
Re: Why Dont Commercial Airplanes Have Parachutes For Passengers? by zamirikpo(m): 11:45am On Dec 13, 2016 |
option 1; the planes like in number 6, should have whole plane parachutes.....that technology needs to be developed fast ,to save lives. option 2; paasenger sites should be ejectable and should have parachutes, just like they have in some military aircrafts....where the pilot can eject and save himself..... life in the skies should be taken more seriously........na money e go chop......life is priceless.... |

Can you imagine. And my hyperactive mind was just wondering about this just this morning, thinking about when and how to get my private jet so I can stuff it with parachutes. And to think there was a time when our forefathers disappeared and appeared at their destinations in the blink of an eye. We really have fallen as a race. |

Planes are designed to be airtight. So even if you are experienced in parachuting how are you going to use a parachute? Through which exit? If a plane is about to crash, the worst thing to do is to let air in from any openings. 1 Like |

ebuclassic18: Well that too, but incorporating it in the seats is the best bet, no added weight would be incured. |
