Airline Crashes

According to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), more than 110,000 airline accidents have occurred since 1967. In 2005, there were approximately 1,764 airplane accidents, resulting in 600 fatalities. From 1998 to 2004, low-level maneuvering of an aircraft was the leading cause of fatal crashes. From January 2006 to July 2006, there were five midair collisions, all with fatal outcomes.

There are many causes of airline crashes, including pilot error, defective equipment, faulty design or construction of the aircraft, violations of FAA regulations, bad weather, or negligence by air traffic control or ground-crew maintenance personnel. The majority of fatal crashes occur during takeoff and landing and are caused by human error or mechanical malfunctions.
