[Instant News/Comprehensive Report] Taking an airplane is considered the safest mode of transportation because it has the lowest average fatality rate. However, if an air crash occurs, the entire aircraft will suffer heavy casualties. Depending on the location of the impact, there is no absolutely safe place for the aircraft.

However, aviation experts still reveal through statistics that the seat with the lowest death rate on the plane is the middle seat in the back row of the plane.

According to "CNN" report, Doug Drury, director of the Aviation Department of Central Queensland University in Australia, pointed out that in 2019, there were nearly 70 million flights worldwide, and the death toll was only 287.

The U.S. census data also shows that the death rate in an air accident is 1 in 200,552, and the death rate in a car accident is 1 in 102. Therefore, air travel is undoubtedly the safest mode of transportation.

Zhuo Li revealed that the "Time Magazine" survey of air accidents in the past 35 years found that the fatality rate of the middle seat in the back row of the plane was the lowest, only 28%. , the middle seat has the risk of wing storage fuel catching fire, while the rear window or aisle seat can help the middle passenger provide a cushion.

However, Zhuo Li emphasized that every air disaster will have different circumstances. For example, in the crash of United Airlines Flight 232 in 1989, most of the 184 survivors out of the 269 people on board sat near the first class cabin, that is, the front of the plane. part.

In addition, the type of air crash will also affect the chance of survival. Hitting a mountain or falling nose-down into the sea will reduce the chance of survival. 228 people were killed, and Air France Flight 447 crashed nose-down into the sea in 2009, killing 228 people.
