One thing is still baffling me, why do all this plane crash without any attempt by the crew or passenger to parachute their way out because there are information that one can jump out of a crashing plane with a parachute or is it only in films that this is applicable, I really wish anybody with inside knowledge abt aeronautics can shed more light on this

Hahaha.. This guy too watch films.. Passenger planes don't carry parachutes and that too for many obvious reasons. Parachute safety protocol will mean wearing them uncomfortably all through the flights..Imagine a long flight with a passenger suffocating in a tightly worn parachute vest in addition to his coat and tie. It also takes skills and several minutes to launch the parachute mechanisms.. Don't forget parachutist are skillfully trained. Imagine a scenario where 300 pasengers are struggling to launch a parachute at once .. Its going to destabilise the plane and cause more stability damage to the already battered plane. Take a magical scenario where every passenger propelled safely out of the plane , making it safe to the ground will practically be impossible for many obvious reasons championed by no skill to ride the parachute.

Here's a look at commercial passenger airplane crashes.

For crashes caused by military acts or by terrorism, see Terrorism and War-Related Airplane Crashes Fast Facts.

On August 12, 1985, the largest number of deaths in a single commercial airplane crash occurred when a Japan Air Lines Boeing 747 crashed into Mt. Ogura in Japan, killing 520 passengers and crew members.

The deadliest commercial airplane accident occurred on March 27, 1977, when two Boeing 747s collided on a runway on the Spanish island of Tenerife, killing 583.




Timeline:


March 3, 1974 - 346 people are killed when a Turkish Airlines DC-10 crashes in France, as a result of the cargo door not being fully latched.


March 27, 1977 - A KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Boeing 747 crashes into a Pan American World Airways Boeing 747 at the Los Rodeos Airport at Tenerife in the Canary Islands, killing a total of 583 (335 fatalities on the Pan American airplane and all 234 passengers plus 14 crew members on the KLM plane).

The accident occurs when the KLM airplane begins its takeoff while the Pan American airplane is still on the runway.


May 25, 1979 - An American Airlines DC-10 crashes after takeoff from Chicago O'Hare International Airport, killing 271 onboard and another two on the ground.

During takeoff, an engine on the left wing falls off; the FAA later faults American Airlines maintenance techniques for the crash.


November 28, 1979 - An Air New Zealand DC-10 crashes into Mt. Erebus on Antarctica and 257 people are killed.

The crash is believed to be the result of a navigational error.


May 26, 1991 - Fifteen minutes after takeoff, a thrust reverser deploys on Lauda Air Boeing 767 Flight 004. The plane crashes 70 miles northwest of Bangkok, Thailand.

All 223 passengers and crew are killed.


July 11, 1991 - The landing gear of a Nigeria Airways DC-8 catches on fire shortly after takeoff and upon return to the airport in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, the plane crashes, killing all 261 people onboard.


April 26, 1994 - A China Airlines Airbus A300 crashes on approach to Nagoya Airport, Japan, and 264 people are killed.


May 11, 1996 - ValuJet Flight 592 crashes in the Florida Everglades, killing 110 people.


July 17, 1996 - TWA Flight 800, a Boeing 747, explodes in air and crashes off the coast of Long Island, New York. All 230 people aboard are killed. The NTSB rules the explosion was caused by faulty wiring that ignited a center fuel tank.


November 12, 1996 - A midair collision between a Saudi Arabian Airlines 747 and a Kazakhstan Airlines II-76 takes place at the New
Delhi, India airport. All 349 people on both airplanes are killed.


August 6, 1997 - A Korean Airlines Boeing 747 crashes in the Guam jungle and 228 people are killed.


September 26, 1997 - A Garuda Indonesia Airlines Airbus A300 crashes in Buah Nabar, Indonesia, killing 234 people.


February 16, 1998 - Flying through rain and fog, a China Airlines Airbus A300 crashes into a neighborhood near Taipei, Taiwan, killing all 196 aboard and another seven on the ground.


September 2, 1998 - A Swissair MD-11 crashes off Nova Scotia, Canada, killing 229. The Canadian Transportation Safety Board later concludes that flammable material and faulty wiring generated a fire that spread beyond the crew's control.


October 31, 1999 - EgyptAir Flight 990, bound for Cairo from New York, crashes into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Nantucket, Massachusetts, plunging 14,000 feet in 36 seconds.

All 203 passengers and 14 crew members are killed.


July 25, 2000 - The Air France Concorde, en route to New York, crashes into a Paris hotel shortly after takeoff, killing 113 (all 109 aboard and four on the ground).


November 12, 2001 - An American Airlines Airbus A300 crashes in Belle Harbor, Queens, shortly after takeoff from JFK Airport, killing a total of 265 people, including five people on the ground.


May 25, 2002 - A China Airlines Boeing 747 crashes into the Taiwan Strait 20 minutes after takeoff, killing all 225 on board. The crash is later attributed to metal fatigue brought on by a previous faulty repair job.


June 1, 2009 - Air France Flight 447 from Rio de Janeiro to Paris carrying 228 passengers and crew is lost over the Atlantic. The first bodies are recovered on June 6, approximately 600 miles off the northern coast of Brazil. On July 5, 2012, France's Bureau of Investigation and Analysis releases a report concluding that a series of errors by pilots and a failure to react effectively to technical problems led to the crash of Air France Flight 447.


March 8, 2014 - Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappears from radar after taking off from Kuala Lumpur en route to Beijing. After more than 10 months of searching for the plane, on January 29, 2015, the government of Malaysia officially declares the loss of MH370 an accident and all of its passengers and crew, 239 people in total, are presumed dead. On August 5, 2015, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak says a piece of debris that washed up on the French island of Reunion is indeed part of missing Malaysian Flight 370. On January 17, 2017, the underwater search for MH370 is suspended, according to a joint statement from Chinese, Australian and Malaysian officials. On July 30, 2018, while announcing the release of a safety investigation report, Malaysian authorities say they have failed to determine the cause of the plane's disappearance, while ruling out several possibilities.


March 24, 2015 - Germanwings Flight 9525 crashes into the French Alps after taking off from Barcelona, Spain, en route to Dusseldorf, Germany. All 150 people on board are killed. On March 26, 2015, officials say that 27-year-old co-pilot Andreas Lubitz deliberately crashed the plane after locking the pilot out of the cockpit. A later investigation reveals that he had suffered from depression in the past.

WHAT ABOUT RUSSIAN TUPOLEV?

They have one of the worst records than Boeing.

It is now that russians are learning their mistakes and correcting them gradually.

Russian manufactured aircraft have more high rate of crash that aircraft manufacture in USA and the west.

Russian aircraft is far worst than the american boeing.

the first time i entered a plane in 2005 i wondered the same thing. Na belview self. I checked under the seat only life jacket dey. Well a plane about to crash is not stable. If u stand up it may slam ur head up and break ur neck. Opening the plane at that altitude too is dangerous for the plane cos air go enter. U also cannot breath in that altitude is u come out. And again na expert sabi parachute do u know when to deploy Stop watching too much film

if u know the number of people who board a plane then you will know it is too expensive to buy enough parachute ( a plane with 300 passengers will need more than 300 parachute)
It takes a short time for a plane to crash so how do people go out. Through a door will cause a serious stampede
90percent of people who use airplane don't know how to use parachute. So total waste of time and money and energy. Cuz many people who attempt to jump from window may end up on a tree. Like what happened to deadpool team in deadpool 2 when they were using parachute
