Airline accidents or aviation accidents can occur for a variety of reasons. Some reasons airline accidents occur are: pilot errors, pilot weather errors, faulty in-flight procedures, and defective airplane equipment and/or mechanics. When operating a plane, pilots and airline companies must adhere to strict terms that are set forth by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). When pilots or airlines fail to adhere to these terms, they are behaving negligently, and may be susceptible to legal action if the plane crashes and passengers are injured.

Thankfully, airline accidents do not occur frequently, and are even quite rare. However, when these accidents do occur, the end result is usually deadly as passengers have little chance of surviving crashes descending from such great heights or forceful impact from the crashes. Those who do manage to survive these devastating crashes usually incur catastrophic injuries, such as: brain injuries, head injuries, neck injuries, back injuries, spinal cord injuries, and/or burn injuries.

Airline Accident Statistics

• People have a 1 in 10.46 million chance of being killed during an airplane accident.
