Are airplanes safe from lightning strikes?
Generally, yes. Aircraft don't have a "path to ground", so there is no particular attraction of lightning to aircraft. However, lightning does occasionally strike aircraft, a…nd sometimes causes some damage to the fuselage of the plane. While flying a routine patrol mission over the north Pacific ocean, our US Navy P-3 Orion patrol aircraft was struck by lightning, which fried our aircraft's radar system and sent a ball of "ball lightning" bouncing down the aisle to the tail. Quite impressive, and it caused some costly damage, but no injuries.
Is it safe to fly with pneumonia?
Pneumonia and its slightly lesser cousin bronchitis are airborne infections. You should not get on an enclosed plane with hundreds of other people when you have either of th…ese. It's bad for you, can exacerbate these conditions because you are flying at high altitude and that is not good for respitory conditions. It can also lengthen the time it will take you to recover; it can even cause potentially life threatening problems which would not be good. Equally important is that flying would be very selfish thing because it would be potentially dangerous for every person you are around. Both pneumonia and bronchitis are both serious illnesses that no one wants to catch and can lead to death of an older or weak fellow passenger. Most airlines have refund policies for medical cases; you should check into it.
Is it safe to get the pneumonia vaccine if your sick?

Is flying private airplanes safe?
Answer: Probably. The FAA mandates very strict guidelines pertaining to the operation, maintenance and repair of all aircraft, including privately owned and operated a…ircraft. So long as these laws are followed to the letter the aircraft should be perfectly safe to fly in. That being said, there are private aircraft owners out there who do skirt the regulations. However it is very uncommon. If there is any doubt, check it out. The tail number of any aircraft can be looked up online to find out who the owner is, and you can then research or even contact that owner to ask questions. Also all aircraft should have the FAA-issued Airworthiness certificate displayed somewhere in the cockpit, ask the pilot for it and make sure it is up-to-date. Airworthiness certificates cannot be issued to aircraft which have not been properly maintained and documented. Even airliners must have this Airworthiness certificate. Ask to see it, and if its not available, dont fly with them! Additionally, most pilots are very familiar with people who are reluctant to fly. Discuss your misgivings with them and most will be perfectly happy to walk you through the preflight inspection and/or discuss the history of the aircraft youll be flying in.

Why do our ears ache when you travel by an airplane?
The air pressure in the cabin of the airplane changes slightly as it goes up and down, just as the air pressure in a car changes when it drives up into the mountains or ba…ck down towards the beach. The changes set up different pressures on the inside and outside of the eardrum, making the ears feel "stuffed" and interfering with hearing. In most people, the eustachian tubes (small tubes inside the head that connect the middle ear with the mouth and nose) open from time to time to let air in or out of the middle ear, which equalizes the pressure and produces a popping sound. However, in some people, these tubes refuse to open, and then the pressure builds up and produces pain in the ears. In the worst case, the eardrums may rupture, but usually it just produces severe pain. This condition is called ear block. It's not a health risk (unless it's bad enough to rupture the eardrum), but it's not pleasant. It is often worse on the way down than it was on the way up. You can help avoid it by pinching your nose shut, closing your mouth, exhaling into your mouth and nose, and then swallowing. This tends to open the eustachian tubes to equalize the pressure. If you have problems every time you fly, ask your doctor about it. There may be something he can do to fix the problem. Sometimes taking a decongestant before a flight helps, but usually only if the problem is due to a cold or flu.
