Better Than Driving A Car By Landslides

Airplanes are massive and very complex pieces of machinery, and they help us get to places more efficiently and cheaper than traditional ways. Although we have seen that if

Life on the road means being completely dependent on nature. Many people travel outdoors because of the compelling beauty of nature. Travelers of the road do it for the thrill, and others for soul-seeking. Nature has a strong effect on humans, whether it’s positive or negative. For example, a travel can either end in acknowledging the beauty of nature or a fatal accident. So many famous writers and philosophers write about the value of nature; Henry David Thoreau, Jack London, Boris Pasternak, and many others. Life on the road has its advantages and disadvantages. This can be seen when Jon Krakauer wrote about Chris McCandless, a very famous traveler and an intelligent man, after his death in the book, Into the Wild. Chris McCandless was a

The airline industry is one of the largest global industries in the world. Airline companies in the airline industry have gone through challenging obstacles in the past decade. Many changes have occurred within the industry and increased regulations have driven up cost for the industry. The attacks on 9/11 left the industry in shock when planes were used in terrorist attacks in the United States. These attacks changed the mentality of the industry and shifted the focus towards safety. Safety was also a major concern in the industry with the breakout of SARS in 2003 and the H1N1 flu in 2009. The airlines had to ensure that public health and safety of the travelers were

According to usatoday “The odds of dying in a motor vehicle accident to be 1 in 98 for a lifetime. For air and space transport (including air taxis and private flights), the odds were 1 in 7,178 for a lifetime, according to the table.” But who’s job is it to keep passengers safe.

Since the beginning of aviation, aircraft have been used for other intentions besides carrying passengers and cargo. They have been used as weapons of war dating all the way back to the first world war, and the use of aircraft has enlightened the advancement of the aviation. “Throughout the history of aviation, the greatest progress in flight has been made during time when either war or the threat of war was present” (Millspaugh, et al., 2008, p. 33). However, the war we face today has been triggered by the deliberate use of aircraft to cause death, destruction, and mayhem.

This is a false statement because airplane collision can be eliminated through the provision of better safety control measures. This is a measure of opportunity cost by the Airplane Company whereby safety is traded off by other factors to reduce cost of air traffic control and substitute it with other company cost such as charges incurred during air flights. Opportunity cost is the value of the forgone in order to take an alternative action. This can be seen as an economizing behavior that makes use of unlimited resources so as to satisfy other unlimited wants.

Background and Audience Relevance: According to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in 2015, about thirty-five hundred people were killed, and four hundred thousand were injured in car crashes.

The greatest impacts on aviation security were the events that unfolded on September 11, 2001. “American Airlines Flight 11, a wide –body Boeing 767, crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center, at 8:46 a.m. EDT, hitting floors 94 to 98.” (Bragdon, Clifford, 2008, p.127). At 9:02 a.m., United Airlines Flight 175, a Boeing 767, struck the World Trade Center South Tower hitting floors 78 to 85. “A third airplane, American Airlines Flight 77, a Boeing 757-200, crashed into the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., at 9:37 a.m.” (Bragdon, Clifford, 2008, p.127). A fourth airplane, United Airlines Flight 93, a Boeing 757, crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania; it is believed its target was the White House or Capitol Building. This plot constructed by Osama bin Laden exploited the vulnerability of the airplanes cockpit and control over the airplane. Bin Laden chose the Boeing 767 for its capability of holding 20,000 gallons of jet fuel to use as a weapon on the twin towers. The transportation system always recognized airplanes as a target of terrorist attacks, but never considered airplanes as been utilized as a weapon in an attack. Domestic agencies were searching for threats in the country. “The September 11 attacks fell into a void between the foreign and domestic threats. The foreign intelligence agencies were watching overseas, while the domestic agencies were waiting for evidence of a domestic threat from sleeper cells within the United States. No one was looking for a foreign threat to domestic targets.” (Kramer, R.M., 2005, International Public Management Journal, 8(3). Unnatural threats are generally man made and include explosives, biological weapons, conventional weapons, military weapons, improvised devices, sabotage, and also unconventional threats such as mental instability of pilots and

I hate planes, I always have. Ever since I was little I had a fear of ever doing an one of those unsafe pieces of metal flying through the sky. I made a promise to myself that I would never go on a plane, and I never thought that I would ever break that promise. I never like just giving up on something, like a promise. But, I really should have kept that promise. Because, if I did keep the promise to myself, I wouldn’t hear the screaming. I wouldn’t see all the crying. I wouldn’t have been in my worst nightmare--I wouldn’t have been in a plane crash.

American Airlines Flight 1420 tragically crashed on June 1, 1999. The flight crew attempted to land the McDonnell Douglas DC-9-82 in Little Rock, Arkansas during a thunderstorm. The aircraft overran the runway, crashing through several obstacles before coming to rest 800 feet from the end of the runway. Eleven people were killed and over 100 injured. This preventable accident was the result of human error, miscommunication, and poor decision making. After investigating the Flight 1420 crash, the NTSB made several recommendations to the FFA addressing the issues that led to the accident in an attempt to prevent such errors in the future.

Airline travel is arguably safer than that of car travel, with not only less risk for in motion issues and collisions of any sort, but not issues about missing the turn off. Airline travel issues do not usually persist during travel, yet can sometimes happen before the take-off even begins. The issue with Airline travel is not travel hazards, but instead travel protocols often carried out by the airline companies. United Airlines specifically has gone through too many CEO switches and un-transparent business ethics leading to customer complaints and needs to reevaluate business ethics.

Driving a motor vehicle is dangerous no matter what way you try and look at it. Each year it is increasing with fatal crashes. Not always, but most of the time, there is

There is a need for some small scale revisions like clarity when it comes to some of the things you have written like "many people" who are "many people"? For your final reason, you are arguing "time will not be wasted driving a traditional vehicle", what do you mean by "time will not be wasted driving a traditional vehicle", wouldn't it be the same amount of time to travel from one place to another? How would an autonomous car change that? Is there a counter argument that you are arguing? This is an interesting argument, you do give an insight into your argument, just needs a little more detail.

Airline industry is a growing and a challenging industry across the globe and it is becoming more competitive on quality, pricing and most prominently safety in the contemporary world.

Another substitute mode of transportation that poses a threat to the airline industry is the use of automobiles. Price differential is a factor in why people choose driving over booking a flight. While flying saves a great deal of time over driving, it can be considerably cheaper to drive a long distance, depending on the type of car and the
