Are low-cost airlines EasyJet or Ryanair safe?

Airplanes are the safest means of transportation. This plane that has been used for dozens of times feels very good, even the plane to Tibet is OK. How safe is the plane? How often do major accidents happen? Major accidents rarely occur, and the accident rate of causing many casualties is about one in three million. Aviation is the safest long-distance transportation mode, and it is getting safer and safer. Thirty years ago, the incidence of major accidents was once every1.400 million miles. Today, there are still 654.38+04 billion miles away from major accidents, and the safety has been improved tenfold. ★ Which is safer, flying or taking a bus? According to the comparative study of casualties from 1993 to 1995 by the National Security Council of the United States, flying is 22 times safer than taking a bus. In fact, in the past 60 years in the United States, in a typical three months, the number of deaths caused by plane accidents was less than that caused by car accidents. ★ Which part of the flight is the most risky? Take off and climb to cruising altitude. Descent and landing are the two stages that are most prone to problems in flight. To put it very simply, the requirements for the aircraft in terms of engine thrust and structural integrity are the highest when taking off, while the requirements for the cockpit crew are the highest when approaching and landing. About three-quarters of the serious accidents occurred in these two short flight phases. ★ Where is the safest seat on the plane? Some people think it is safer to sit near the wing or at the back of the cabin. But there is no evidence that any part of the plane is safer than others. It is best to listen to the introduction of safety knowledge before each flight takes off and listen to the report of all crew members during the flight. ★ Is there any way to make aviation safer? In the past 15 to 20 years, due to the expansion of computerized flight simulator and radar coverage, and when there is an airplane in the nearby airspace, when it is too close to the ground, when the altitude or flight angle of the airplane is unstable or when the wind changes, high-tech equipment warns pilots that flight safety has been greatly improved. The aviation industry is continuing to improve aviation safety through better pilot training, better aircraft inspection and maintenance technology and new safety technologies. For example, in the next century, all civil aviation jets will use satellite navigation and communication to tell air traffic controllers on the ground at any time, which is a big step forward than relying on ground navigation equipment and radar navigation. The latter will no longer "see" the plane after it flies over the horizon. References:
