Recently, air-saving news has been reported, and many people who often take flights have also begun to suffer from "flight anxiety". People's magazines have visited several aviation experts to help you understand aircraft and flights better, and face the correct fear and no longer be surprised when flying next time.

1. It is normal to be anxious

When people are afraid of flying, telling them that "nothing will happen" or providing them with various data that prove the safety of the aircraft, it is likely that it will not be a comforting effect. On the contrary, the anxious should be right about their emotions and feelings.

Michael, a ground staff member at Chicago International Airport McCabe explained that when we fly in the air at 400 miles per hour, our situation is extremely unconventional, so even if we know the statistical results of flight safety, our brains may not be able to connect the viewing data with the current feelings.

2. Flying is becoming safer

Macba, taking the example of an accident in Huaguo at the beginning of this year, said that every time there is an accident, airline personnel will adjust the measures and check the error, so that the same accident will not occur a second time.

3. Flying machines can be ashamed

For many people who are terrified of flying, every time a flies encounters a freak, it is quite surprising, but according to the words of the operator Kyle Koukol, the aircraft was designed to resist freaks and more dangerous situations at the beginning of its construction.

Koke added that the air flow is caused by the air pressure change caused by the rise or fall of the temperature of the atmosphere. In simple terms, it is the frictional sway caused by the wind direction. The engine will control the aircraft to avoid the wind as quickly as possible and will not cause damage to the aircraft engine or any part.

4. The bosses are not resting

Since the automatic driving system of modern aircraft is very complete, many people may think that the bosses do not need to pay too much attention on the aircraft, but can Kou recognize this?

He said that the chief and vice-president of the flight will constantly check the flight plan and confirm the aircraft status. In addition to the automatic flight system during the flight, passengers are also protected by professionals throughout the flight.

5. Different aircraft will emit different sounds

People who feel anxious during flights are often shocked by the sounds emitted by the aircraft. The aircraft leader Kou said that the prompt sounds of different aircraft will be different. For example, passengers from Boeing and Airbus will remind passengers when they take off and land with different sounds.

In addition, different aircraft engines may also emit different audio signals, which are normal and do not need to be surprised.

6. Flight service members have been professional training

In addition to ground staff and crew members, flight service personnel who serve on the aircraft have also been very well trained. In addition to serving tea and water, they are also the first line of defense to help passengers face emergency situations.

Deep Space Service Sara Nelson said that before boarding different aircraft, flight attendants will receive complete emergency escape and crisis training. They not only understand all escape and evacuation routes, but also have complete countermeasures in the face of possible attack behaviors.

7. Pay attention to the instructions

Nilsen explained that no one is more familiar with the airplane's avoidance and safety measures than flight attendants, so if there is a danger, passengers must remain calm and listen carefully to the instructions of flight attendants.

Nilsen said: "If the flight attendant asks you to stay in your seat, please stay in place; if the flight attendant instructs not to bring anything during the escape, do not insist on bringing your luggage around."

8. Delaying of flights is not necessarily a bad thing

Although flight errors or cancellations often cause trouble for the journey, Nilsen said that this situation usually means that airmen are as likely to ensure the safety of flights and the clearance of the waterway.

Aviation Chief Kou Ke also agreed to this view, saying that the aviation personnel will never, nor should they cause unnecessary risks in order to stop time.
