Crash na crash weda na turbulence induced or failed engine

Go to Google and check if there has ever been any plane crash as a result of turbulence. Try re-reading what you are about to type before posting to remove any doubt that you are indeed just dumb.

Enough of all these scaremongering Biko
Turbulence is nothing but gallop or bumps in the air,,, it's part and parcel of air transportation,,,,,if you are on a planne and the turbulence becomes too much,just recline your seat a bit and imagine you are in a massage chair,,,works well all the time cos e go massage your back wella for you sotey you go come dey vex if the turbulence stop

The chances or odds of a plane crashing from turbulence is 1 in 11 million.

Yes! You read it correctly.

Next time when there is turbulence, just relax and sleep.

You're right friend

I must commend the pilot on this 1....crashinq a plane in calabar would have had no option 4 a second life,perhaps a niqhtmare...maybe they would have died at the spot or the human flesh eatinq calabarians would have dealt with their flesh mercilessly...btw,thank God 4 a successful plane crash!

Nigerians! Anything that happens in a plane is described as "almost crashed". In aviation historyxl, turbulence isnt known to crash planes at all, they can make a flight unpleasant, but doesnt bring any plane down.

Just the other day, a pilot missed the right touchdown point at MMIA and had to return to the air for another landing attempt which turned out successful. Screaming headlines appeared everywhere - OBJ escapes death in plane crash!!! Haba!

Nigerians are just too local. We really lack knowledge. A plane can never crash no matter the seriousness of the turbulence.

Planes are built to withstand the toughest turbulence.

Turbulence can cause plane crashes, either as the primary reason for an accident or a contributing factor.
According to the FAA, 234 turbulence accidents occurred from 1980 to 2008 resulting in 298 serious injuries and three fatalities. Of those serious injuries, 184 victims were flight attendants and 114 were passengers. Of the three fatalities, two were passengers who were not wearing their seat belts while the fasten seatbelt sign was on. Most turbulence-related accidents occur at or above 30,000 feet and many are linked to passengers not being securely fastened in their seats.

In 1966, a British Overseas Airways plane crashed and the tail fin tore apart after experiencing winds in excess of 140 miles per hour. In 1968, turbulence tore a wing off a Wien Consolidated Airlines flight in Alaska. More recently, in 2009 an Air France flight flew into a storm. In an attempt to steer away from inclement weather, the pilot sent the plane into an aerodynamic stall, which caused the plane to crash. In that tragedy, a combination of turbulence, airspeed sensor malfunction and most likely pilot error all contributed to the crash.

Plane go just shake small, Nigerians onboard will start speaking in tongues. I wish Nigerians can travel long distance by water, so that they can feel what real turbulence is

Tell them when you are onboard.

In that turbulence at times, the plane act as if it is falling.
