Why was the airport invented?
So passengers could embark and disembark from airliners.
What were the planes that crashed in to the twin towers made of?
They were airliners and full of passengers. So they were made like all airplanes out of metal.
Do commercial planes carry parachutes?
No, not on any routine commercial flight with passengers.
Why do airliners have pressurized cabin?
So the passengers can breathe. ----------------------------------------- You see, above a certain altitude, the air is so thin that it will not support human life.
What items are available on the Airliners website?
The Airliners website is considered to be the largest aviation website. Airliners has photos, discussions, chat rooms, and histories all related to aircraft.
Why don't planes have a parachutes if the plane malfunctions?
Good question and here are a few logistical problems with providing parachutes to passengers… a) This would add weight to the plane. More weight means more fuel burn, and thus more money for all on board. b) Training each and every passenger how to use one, is not possible. c) Air travel is far to safe to even require the use of parachutes. d) If an aircraft did encounter a situation that would require all on board evacuate then the aircraft would have to be depressurized in order to allow the cabin doors to open. Doing this would subject passengers to the high altitude low pressure and oxygen causing unconsciousness. Unconscious passengers don't make for a good evacuation.
What is the parachutes purpose?
The reason parachutes were designed was so that people could fall at any height and not get hurt at all.
What is called a group of airliners?
a group of airliners is called a fleet.
Why commercial planes don't have parachute to save life of passengers in case of emergency?
One simple reason: practicability. First of all parachutes are expensive. And having 200 or more parachutes on a fleet of 150+ airplanes would blow airlines' budgets to pieces. Another reason: weight. The weight of all the parachutes would severly limit the capacity of an aircraft. And finally, parachutes are sometimes difficult to operate and would not work with children or people with special needs. Also, many aircraft accidents happen either immediately after takeoff or just before landing, and there is no time to get all the passengers to put on parachutes (almost all of whom would never have had done so before), get them to the exits and get them out of the airplane, which would also need to be at a sufficient altitude for the parachutes to open safely (before the person wearing the parachute hits the ground). Another consideration is weight and balance. Having all the passengers run to the back of the airplane so they can jump out, when the airplane is already in trouble, may not be the best thing to do (can't jump from the front doors; too many things to hit (i.e., wings, tail, antennas, landing gear, flaps, etc.), and the possibility of ingestion into the engines!) The January 2008 accident involving a British Airways 777 at London-Heathrow is a perfect example of an incident where there was absolutely no time to respond. The flight crew didn't even have time for a 'Mayday' call on the radio, or to tell the passengers and cabin crew to brace for impact. Things can sometimes happen very, very quickly, and in this case the flight crew did an excellent job in getting the airplane on the ground in as few pieces as possible.
What plane hit the trade center?
There were two airliners that hit the Towers. They were full of passengers and the terrorist took over the cockpit and flew them into the buildings. As I saw it on my morning news it seemed impossible that it was real.
How do you say parachutes in french?
Its still parachutes.
Where do Scorpio's endless parachutes come from?
His endless supply of parachutes can not have any semi-realistic explanation, it is simply the scripting of the game so you don't have to worry about whether you have a parachute. After all, it would be annoying to run out of parachutes or wait for one to recharge.
