"This aircraft has encountered some faults and is under repair ......"

This is probably the most frustrating thing I have heard on so many flight journeys. Fortunately, we were still on the ground when we heard this sentence.

This is the last Sunday. I took a Chinese airlines flight from Shanghai to Beijing. After boarding the plane, the plane was delayed. After a while, I heard a message from the broadcast about the least UX in history: "The plane has encountered some faults and is being repaired ......" For a moment, passengers were whispering. Although the safety factor of the plane is the highest throughout the day, most people are still afraid of flight, especially-how can we make the plane fly with disease? I don't know what the fault is, whether the engine is broken or the wing is broken. How long does it take to fix it. The only thing I knew at the time was that the air conditioner seemed to be faulty and the engine room was very hot.

After waiting for about an hour, we got detailed information about the plane tires. The staff was repairing the tires but still had no idea when to fix them. I don't know what the effects of airplane tires on airplanes are, but I remember that some accidents were related to the landing gear.

At this time, the crew had served a drink and started to serve lunch, which was more than 12 noon. To be honest, if I don't look out the window while I'm eating an indescribable lunch on the plane, watching the crew go busy and with the engine shaking, I can fully believe that the plane has flown over the entire journey.

After another hour, after the scheduled arrival time, the tires were repaired and ready to take off. To be honest, I 'd rather wait for two hours for air control, at least I don't have to worry about whether the plane is still running normally during the sky. In addition to looking at the components on the wings of the plane, I have been wondering whether the staff should tell the passengers the details? For passengers, knowing this will only make them nervous, and you will not expect any one of them to sign up to help them repair tires.

When I returned, I thought about it again. I was playing the safety notice. I keep thinking that every time a plane with such a high security factor plays a security education film that is enough to remind people of all possible air crashes. In comparison, the problem of connecting a taxi with a seat belt, which is much more dangerous, has not been solved. The safety of transportation is usually measured by the number of deaths per 0.1 billion km. Currently, the number of planes is 0.04, the number of trains is 1.96, and the number of highways is 6.6, the number of cars and taxis is as high as 58.08.

In the face of such a wide gap, is it really worthwhile for us to stimulate every passenger over and over again for such a low plane loss rate? Despite years of statistical evidence, people are still not so confident in the safety of airplanes (people always think that the plane's fault rate is low because it is not flying too much, of course, the statistical method mentioned above has refuted this statement ). In addition, I always think that the survival rate of an airplane will be minimal once it is crashed, so since it is very difficult to encounter an accident and there is no chance to survive it after it is encountered, what are the significance of these safety instructions?

Later I read a piece of data, which changed my long-term idea. According to a statistical report by the National Transport Security Commission, 95% of people are able to escape from danger after an accident occurs on the plane. 71 people were killed and nearly 1983 passengers (about 2000 people) survived the 568 us crash from 96% to 51 thousand. More than half of the 26 cases of fire, serious injury, total damage and serious damage to the plane survived.

In this case, I think it is worthwhile to make passengers nervous compared with the survival of most people.
