I define the jet age with the Comet, Smithsonian with the 707. By the Smithsonian's definition, it's the first calendar year without such a fatality. By mine, it's the fourth, but the first with thousands of jets flying.

Turkish Airlines Flight 6491 !!!

Not a commercial jet with passengers. That was a cargo plane.
-
Ok. Yeah missed it was a cargo plane. Indeed a good year of commercial jets and passengers too!!

Unless you were on a United flight and didn't want to give up your seat

Just for abundance of clarity: zero deaths at all (including individual medical cases like heart attacks etc)? Earlier claim was crashes.
-
Deaths (and to stress for the eleven thousandth time (my mentions have been a sewer of wrecked Cessna photos), among passengers aboard commercial jet aircraft (not prop planes))
-
Yeah, clear on the parenthetical jet sewer - sigh, sorry about that. But.. at all; that is amazing.
-
Some people are so morbidly determined to prove something wrong, it amazes me.
-
I really don't know their gain honestly. Good news does not seem to appeal to the majoity
-
Why do you think everyone thinks the world is so fucked? Nothing but negative news, because it gets more attention.

Look at the image in the article and re-read my tweet carefully.

Oh right. JET airplane... this was a propeller plane.

Not sure if either of you have seen it, but the story of the guy who came up with the jet engine is suuuuuuper interestinghttps://youtu.be/VeHbjcekP1Q

So... rich people don't die ??
-
Do you think only rich people travel in commercial airplanes?
-
Interestingly I’ve seen economists note flying is a key development indicator. So yes flying is largely the preserve of the rich at least when viewed globally.
-
I fly about once a year and I am officially poor. I save all year so I can see my son and daughter in law. I see other poors on the planes sometimes.
-
'other poors'

-
What should I have said?
-
No you are right us 'poors'.have to fight together
-
there are companies offering commercial jet flights at 20 bucks... c'mon, let's be serious. (btw, i'm still convinced that lowering the prices in this industry hasn't always been beneficial. but at least it seems safety has not been weakened...)
