Why you should never board a commercial plane

They are gambling with your life. Commercial airways have been around for ages and yet to this day no one has thought to install emergency ejection systems 😒. They keep talking about how unlikely a plane crash is statistically and yet planes are crashing. And when they do crash it's like okay everyone there's nothing to see here get back to your flights this is statistically one in a million.

I mean they won't even install an emergency fuel dump system to give crash landings a chance so it won't freaking explode.

Something doesn't add up. Why are they playing roulette with passenger safety?

It doesn't matter how well maintained a machine is, mechanical failure can kick in at anytime. Something needs to be done. There was never a good enough reason for people to perish in plane crashes. This is not the warring era when soldiers were expected to take risks due to a lack of resources.

Precisely what I mean. They're trapping you in a little logic pool. Beyond that pool lies the question: why don't they change the entire design. If that wasn't an option then we wouldn't have activities such as skydiving.

That's true, that's also quite an option, which will probably be employed by drone transportation services.

Until then, people are forced to gamble with their lives because they've got to go to work. Sure the flights are cheaper as they are, but you're paying the rest of the sum with your life. 50% cash 50% life.

What's funny is that they won't even implement an evacuation system for the pilot's at least. Because would you still want to board a plane then?

What about a bungee jumping system from the plane ✈️ 🤷‍♂️

😂. Sounds like a just-married ride. Only rather than empty cans hooked to a car, you've got screaming voices hooked to a descending plane... now that's marriage for you.
