Airplane Accidents

Airplane accidents refer to incidents involving an aircraft that result in damage, destruction, or injury. These accidents can occur during various phases of flight, including takeoff, cruising, landing, and taxiing. An airplane accident is typically characterized by a significant event that distinguishes it from routine aviation operations, often leading to investigations to determine the cause, which may include human error, mechanical failure, weather conditions, or safety violations. The term encompasses a range of occurrences, from minor incidents to catastrophic crashes, and is an important area of study in aviation safety and engineering to improve regulations, pilot training, and aircraft design, ultimately aiming to reduce the frequency and severity of such events.
