Pressurisation failure and explosive decompression have caused some of the worst air disasters to date. BOAC Flight 781, South African Airways Flight 201, Aloha Airlines Flight 243, British Airways Flight 5390, United Airlines Flight 811 and Helios Airways Flight 522 have all suffered from pressure issues causing severe fatalities.

I am glad that the earlier man mentioned how much we take aviation safety for granted. It really is a miracle that many planes land safely on a daily basis. After watching documentaries and reading about plane crashes for a while, I've grown to respect all of the people involved who make flying safe. Even the tiniest parts or decisions going wrong can lead to disaster. Every time I see a plane landing safely on my work commute (which is by the airport), it is both a relief and amazing to look at.

I remember seeing a longer documentary about this (I think it was the same show just an episode dedicated to that disaster) and the passengers basically weren't even sure if they still had a captain until the plane started to bank, heading for an airport on Maui. One of the passengers said the relief he felt then was insane because they couldn't even tell if the cockpit was still attached, let alone if they still had pilots. Crazy. I can't imagine going through something like that! Major props to the crew for sure. Moment of silence for CB Lansing, the flight attendant who was lost during the decompression.

Well, one thing I learned is if I'm having trouble breathing with regular ear popping and there are oxygen masks dropping down, I'd get a flight attendant to make sure that Auto pressurization switch is flipped on. As a passenger to the captain. I also wish that passengers were privy to copies of the previous maintenance reports on planes simply because it is a Right to Know situation. EVEN IF those maintenance records fly over people's heads, some people would appreciate the thought of safety in numbers, ESPECIALLY if it were digital.

@waxwinged_hound Жыл бұрын

Honestly I'd like that, not just for Right to Know reasons. Planes are fascinating and even though I can't understand a lot of the engineering jargon it would be an interesting read. Though, of course, it could make people nervous and not fly, which means less money for the top execs and shareholders and that's a huge no-no. Opacity lets them get away with more.

I have calculated it once: the chance to die of an airplane in the west is about one to a million per average flight. So this means you need about 2 million flights in the west to have a significant chance of dying from it. And on an average flight in nonwestern countries the chance to die per average flight is about 1 to 250.000. so about 4 times higher than in the West due to putting economy above life.

I just wonder about the staff training. Are they trained to spot signs of trouble like depressurization? Would they then talk to the flight crew? Increasingly, cabin staff are getting more demands put on them. It's not just about serving food and drink, or dealing with the odd heart attack. Their training should reflect the various scenarios that may occur during a flight such as, for example, depressurization. Even if they are incorrect in their assessment, at least by contacting the flight crew, it will alert the flight crew to a potential problem, if they aren't aware of it already. Ineffective communication is at the core of so many of these accidents.

I'm just wondering, but couldn't a safety feature of aircraft be to vent excess air out to reduce fatigue in the metal through overflow valves? Or is excess air pressure automatically vented back into the atmosphere via the cockpit's computer? If either case is true, does it vent out the back, or out the nearest point of maximum air pressure? All that air has to go somewhere, just saying.
