  • Why is the A380's safety record so good?
    Well…The A380's impressive safety record is, in fact, partly down to its lack of customers - Since relatively few of these aircraft are flying or have flown over the years.

    All modern planes are safe (unless it's Boeing with their fatal design of the MAX) because the performance envelope for conventional airplanes is a solved problem. All that is left to do is squeeze more efficiency out of the engines and wings. All these factors mentioned in this video about fewer take offs and operators is just a proxy for saying there haven't been as many opportunities for pilot error to occur.

      The 747 is basically an air freighter built from the ground up. It was converted to be a passenger jet after TWA and Pan Am's delivery of Boeing's SuperSonic Transports were delayed (and eventually cancelled). The fact the 747 is such a great freighter is good news since it means it'll be in the sky for decades after the A380, albeit flying for cargo airlines.

    Utter garbage video. The A380 has flown since entry into service millions of flighthours and has tranported millions of people. The safety record is due the load of new technology and systems introduced like EHA/ EHBA and LHGS. On top of that, the A380 lands way slower than all other widebody in its class. (lands +/- speed of a 737)Lower landing speed translates into a safer landing. Airbus incorporated this into the A380 design together with massive brakes and spoilers.. Also new 2D volumetric radar, new avionics wit OIT and BTV/ ROPS/BUSS/ ACUTE systems increased safety. Each A380 has 25000 sensors which monitors everything. Even if there were 50 more operators the safety record would remain.

      Bro I think the A380 is the most overrated plane but still, really?

    The 787 have a better record than the A380, it has way more take-off/landing cycles. But 0 accidents is still zero for all the top safe planes.

      Every plane can have uncontained engine failures. Look at Southwest 1380.
