Unknown And Interesting Facts About Airplane
Amazing Facts About Airplanes That Will Make Your Mind Soar
You may be a seasoned flyer with foolproof strategies for packing an overhead compartment, getting upgrades, or taking a snooze when you hit cruising altitude, but even the most intrepid airplane travelers are often in the dark when it comes to what actually goes on behind the scenes on aircrafts.
Why don't airplane tires burst on impact? How dangerous is it when a plane loses an engine? Is that airplane water really safe to drink? Read on to find answers to your burning questions about flying the friendly skies.
1 Some planes can fly for more than five hours after one of their engines goes out.
ETOPS—or extended twin operations—is a designation that indicates the length of time a twin-engine plane can safely cruise to with one inoperative engine. In 2014, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner earned 330-minute ETOPS certifications, meaning it can stay safely operational on just one engine for more than five hours before needing to land.
2 In-flight oxygen masks aren't intended to last the whole flight.
In fact, according to a report from the Air Accident Investigation & Aviation Safety Board, those masks only provide 12 minutes of continuous airflow on a 737. Luckily, that's typically just the amount of time needed for your flight to find a safe landing spot.
3 Pilots frequently fall asleep on the job.
So, who's flying your plane, exactly? Maybe no one—at least for portions of the flight. According to a 2017 report by the British Airline Pilots Association (BALPA), among a group of 500 pilots polled, 43 percent admitted to accidentally falling asleep while manning the plane, while 31 percent admitted to waking up from a nap to find their co-pilot sleeping, as well.
4 Airplane air is significantly drier than any you might experience on earth.
While the Mojave Desert in the Western United States often has humidity levels up to 50 percent, you'll get just a fraction of that moisture aboard a plane. In fact, according to the World Health Organization, the humidity aboard your average aircraft hovers under 20 percent.
