Some smaller planes do infact have parachutes but larger aircraft are pretty heavy so you would need a REALLY BIG parachute which would make the aircraft even larger than they already are which would need larger amounts of fuel, larger runways and a larger overall airport.

The ideal solution would be to design the passenger compartment to be a jettison able compartment. Like an escape capsule, the compartment would be pressurized, light weight , and buoyant. There are drawbacks although. The compartment would not be steerable and could hit power lines, building etc however I'd rather take my chance with a parachute escape system than slamming into ground in an airliner). Furthermore, a jettison able passenger compartment is useless in takeoff and landing crashes... which is the vast majority of crashes. Also does not help in cases of mid air collisions or situations where there is not enough time to deploy such a system... like slamming into a mountaintop shrouded by clouds. A jettisoning compartment system is technically possible but the reason airlines do not have them is cost. The cost of redesigning an airliner with a jettison able passenger compartment and related systems would be enormous!!! As would be replacing every existing airline in service with one of these new aircraft. Keep in mind 747s were designed in the 1970s and still fly today. It's more economical to keep such aircraft flying than replacing with a new one (in most cases) Having to replace every aircraft in an airline fleet ... The airlines would go bankrupt. Hate to say it but it is more cost effective to let people die in crashes and let insurance pay the settlements than it would be to implement jettisoning passenger compartments. Maybe a soft padded Nerf airplane that bounces would be less expensive.

One thing I'd like to add: most people imagine passengers jumping out of the front of the plane. In some clips, you can even see the passengers lining up at the front of the plane and it makes sense because in most cases, passengers enter from the front. But they wouldn't jump from the front because they may ge sucked into the engine

Very interesting! I thought of the idea of bringing my own parachute on a flight if I actually owned a parachute, but yeah just opening the door would cause the strong winds to suck me out of the plane, and with falling off-balance I wouldn't be able to open it. Even if I survived and landed safely by parachute, I likely wouldn't know where I'd be if it's in the middle of plains, woods or a desert. With no residential area within at least 5 miles, I'd be screwed. Overall, I still prefer taking flights over road trips. A car accident is much more frequent than a plane crash based on statistics.

You can sue for higher damages if you can demonstrate that the airline was at fault through negligence.

One does not simply stick 2 chutes on it Capsules and space shuttles survive parachutes simply because they are built with that specifically in mind. Their structures are far heavier than a plane They can afford the extra weight because they do not spend much time in the atmosphere. A space shuttle only really glides in its final descent. An aluminium tin, however needs to survive on earth and therefore has a lighter structure. A parachute would rip this instantly

As one who has parachuted once, I have to agree, you'd have chaos getting all those passengers to put on the parachute correctly and then jumping successfully. I took training before my jump and someone else helped me put it on and ensure it was OK. I then used a static line, to open it. Now, imagine a plane with hundreds of people, some children or handicapped in some way, trying to safely jump from a plane, when they've had absolutely no training before hand.

@@motubak1622 I understand. I'd love aircrafts to be like that but you see passengers are not very trained for such a jump compared to a military personnel. A commerical flight flies very high in the sky and jumping off from that point will freeze and choke them to death. So they'll need a special suit and a O2 tank before jumping. People are not trained for such calamities and will panic making the entire operation futile and impossible to conduct successfully. Also if you're suggesting to equip the seat and make the passengers wear a suit during the flight then that would not be a very comfortable flight. Airlines are competing for a luxurious and comfortable experience. Assuming everyone just jumps off the plane they're not trained for, everyone will be scattered and rescuing all of them upon landing won't be easy. Someone might land on a sea or a tree or get stuck in a powerline. It'll be a bigger mess than staying put inside the flight until the captain safely lands the flight for which he is professionally trained for. This sounds more economical and safer.

First off, the shape, size and weight of the plane is totally different than a capsule re-entering the atmosphere. There is a thing called air pressure which allows the plane to glide through it like how fins on a shark glides through water. This affects the trajectory of how a plane will fall due to the wings and rudders the planes have. (For example, have you ever stuck your hand out the window of a moving car and realized that if you have your hand flat against the air you can feel the air pushing your hand as opposed to having it cutting through the air at a straight position?) A parachute requires that an object falls directly downward without spiraling out of control because if a parachute some how gets twisted in mid air and isn't catching the air pressure that allows it to billow out then of course it's not going to save anything. Also, a plane is not meant to land with the nose downward neither. I'm sure that's been painfully obvious from the many crashes that have occurred before, but I'm assuming you're thinking that a plane can fall downward in a horizontal position which I can assure you will be impossible due to the momentum the plane might already have from traveling forward. Try folding an paper airplane and then have it drop from a horizontal position with the nose facing forward. See how that plays out. I'm sure you'll realize that the paper airplane will glide towards the ground instead of falling flat on it's belly. There is a lot of physics and logic that goes into play with this and why you never see a plane utilize a parachute. I'm not a rocket scientist or anything but a little bit of critical thinking and knowledge of how things work will help determine that this indeed is a terrible idea for a plane.

C: You need to exit using a door behind the wings so only part of the exits on a plane would work & when people panic at the word parachute you can bet they'll use the wrong door. D: Finally, there's the simple fact that learning to parachute is more complicated than the simple class / simulation you're suggesting.

Nevertheless, they still could have the passenger compartment designed to detach from the rest of the plane (via explosive bolts) in an in-flight emergency (assuming the plane is high enough in altitude - or even design it with "ejection rockets" to propel it higher up, as with fighter plane ejection seats in such a situation) .. The compartment would remain totally sealed after deployment and the compartment would come down slowly and safely on maybe 1/2-1 dozen large parachutes that also deploy at the time the compartment is ejected, similar to the way the Apollo command modules did on Earth reentry. Bottom line: (1) emergency arises, (2) captain instructs passengers to all strap in (if they haven't already done so), (3) oxygen masks deploy, (4) cabin crew run and strap into seats kept open for that purpose near the front of the passenger cabin, and, finally, (5) a "fail-safe"-designed button is pushed by the capt. from his/her passenger seat location to initiate the compartment deployment. Sure it may cost additional $$ to have airliners incorporate this design, but aren't dozens or even 100s of human lives worth it? I would think passengers also wouldn't mind paying a few extra $$ per ticket for this safety feature on their plane.

I'm an ex-military parachutist and the part about passengers not being trained to use parachutes cannot be overstated. On our jump course we did nothing but drills on dry land for two weeks before we even set foot on an aircraft. And when we finally did make our jumps everything was done in an orderly fashion led by the jump-master. Even if some of the other obstacles could be overcome, I can only imagine the chaos on a passenger plane full of panicked people with no clue what to do . . . . you'd have people jumping over one another trying to get to the door, parachutes deploying inside the plane, people trying to smash windows. And finally, sport jumpers and military parachutists jump onto drop zones that they know, which wouldn't be the case for a passenger plane dumping people out in the middle of the night over who knows where? All this might make for a good comedy sketch, but totally unworkable in real life.

That "best idea ever" pops up every few months, because of course, random internet people believe that engineers never had that idea and never tested it. Making a detachable capsule greatly reduces the resistance of the entire plane structure. The plane would split in half during landing because instead of having a strong and flexible one piece structure, it would require several moving parts and all the forces that the plane experience would be focused on those points. Then there is the second problem, when would you detach the capsule? 99% of the problems happening mid-flights still lead to a safe landing, including loss of engines. Pilots are trained to do emergency landings and even in case of engine failure, they will more often than not save the plane. The moment you detach the capsule, you no longer have any control over where and how it lands. Even with a perfect parachute reducing the speed of the capsule to almost nothing, the capsule would still most likely violently crash and kill the passengers. Third problem: once you detach the capsule, where are you going to land the rest of the plane? You will no longer have any control over the trajectory of the plane carcass itself and could end up destroying a city. Then the last problem, the parachute itself. A capsule with 200 passengers would weight at the very least 30-40tons, moving a 800km/h. There is not a single fabric that could withstand such forces. Mankind invented flight over 100years ago, millions of engineers have worked on plane safety over the years, if you think you can outsmart them and come up with unique life saving solutions, you are delusional at best.

That reminds me, even if you somehow opened a door easily, at that altitude, the pressure differential between the cabin and the atmosphere would cause an explosive decompression that would destroy the plane instantly.

But that’s the problem. If you want to ensure your death, strapping on a parachute and jumping out of a jet airliner to land who knows where is a pretty good way to go about it. Parachutes on airliners is one of those ideas that fails at every level and the only people stupid enough to even entertain the idea are people who know nothing about parachutes or commercial aircraft. Your best chance of survival in an emergency is to stay in your seat, with your seatbelt fastened and do what the crew tells you to do.

Unless you have some kind of scuba diving gear, you couldn't get to an escape exit without passing out from hypoxia. It literally only takes a couple dozen seconds. Hundreds of people in complete hysteria would be blocking your path. You'd be suffering from the worst head-pain known to mankind. Eardrums burst in an instant, blood gushing for your ears and nose. The depressurisation would also do some ghastly stuff to your eyes. They might bleed, might straightup pop out of their sockets. Rapid depressurisation is one of the worst ways a human can die and there's no way someone could ever follow the procedure of escaping a stalling jetliner under those conditions.

Real answer = Money , they can make it happen if they want to like in every military fighter jet and in many military cargo planes, but our lives are not worth it to them. The recent Chinese crash is a good example of a parachute coming in handy, pilot suicide, structural fails, terrorism, a simple choice vs a dodgy landing, an inability to land and so on, they would just rather we die, end of discussion

Simple solution: They could manufacture new aircraft, where they make the bottom of the fuselage (including the cargo hold, fuel tanks, and landing gear) ejectable in an emergency. the parachutes (with altimeters) are built into the seats, which would deploy when the bottom fuselage is ejected and the falling seat reaches an altitude of less than 10,000 feet. The redesign of the seat belt would also be necessary to keep a person from falling out of the seat when ejected. Of course, NONE of this will happen because the airlines won't spend the money to do it. Remember a corporations motto: PROFIT OVER PEOPLE!!!

There's better solution maybe - Casualty occurs either due to fuel burn or from shock of crashing. If it has to be crash-land or crash is imminent, drop the fuel tank like the fighter jets do (costly upgrade required in the fuel storage network) And then, deploy an inflatable Jacket Bubble Shelter for every passenger, *ask Q. This isn't perfect, still better than the direct shock of falling and fuel burn.

I'm guessing it's because the wings are a better parachute than a parachute. To deploy a full parachute, you'd first have to slow the plane down with a drogue chute, like you see in drag racing. Otherwise, the main chute would tear immediately. Deploying a drogue to slow the plane down might not be the best idea when speed is the only thing keeping your plane in the air. You're better off gliding down.

Just forgoing the profit on one flight would pay for a parachute for each passenger (wholesale). Then it would be there for the remaining passengers. But jumping out of a commercial airliner at 500 MPH would rip your arms and legs off (and your head) from the wind. Fighter pilots have to put a shield down in front of them to protect them from the wind. Everybody standing at the door would have no problem getting out or opening the door because the vacuum would SUCK everybody out anyway, regardless of whether you wanted to go or not. Once the handle is unlatched everybody would be squished through the door. The stewardess tells you your seat cushion floats, (on what, air?) we're not over any water. As she smiles. If the roof opened like bombay doors which unlatched the pull strap over your head so you could pull it down. Which would eject you like a fighter pilot and protect you, and the back of the seat was a chute with automatic deploy. Then the bottom of the seat would be a inflateable raft by CO2 cartrige with a EPIRB. Lap belts don't stop your brain from being smashed into breakfast cerial against the seat in front of you. Shoulder straps would help. Also, if your flying already at 500 MPH and you point towards the ground terminal velocity would increase even more. Hitting the water at those speeds would dissintegrate an airplane. (think of belly flopping) The water doesn't have time to move aside. It becomes a solid (like concrete). I bet they don't even think of tanks in the wings and the side walls of the cargo area that would act like pontoons. It would be the same as the fuel tanks in the wings but next to them. (DUH) It would remove some spars? Then how did you get the fuel tanks in the wings? (DUH) Why does a cruise ship give you a life preserver when they know your just going to get sucked into the propeller and turned into hamburger anyway.
