这家马航波音777飞机在10天前刚刚检查过,而且据称状况良好。波音777是一种远程飞机,普遍认为安全性很高。从1995年投入使用以来只发生过60次事故。
Takeoff and landing are typically the riskiest portions of the flight. A Boeing 777 operated by Asiana Airlines was involved in the crash at San Francisco Airport last year that killed three people.
起飞和降落通常是飞行过程中最危险的两个时段。一家韩亚航空的波音777去年在旧金山机场降落时就发生了事故,造成3人死亡。
But the en-route portion of the flight, which the Malaysian Airlines flight was on, is seen as the safest. According to a Boeing analysis, only 9 percent of fatal accidents occur at cruising altitude.
但在飞行途中,也就是马航飞机失联的时段,普遍认为是最安全的。根据一份波音公司的分析,只有9%的致命事故发生在巡航高度。
"Cruise is generally a pretty good place," says David Ison, assistant professor at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, who was a transport pilot with international and transoceanic experience. "There's stable conditions. The weather at higher altitudes is generally better. The only issue is turbulence and sometimes thunderstorm activity."
埃姆伯里-利德尔航空学院的助理教授大卫·艾森说,“巡航通常是一个非常不错的阶段”。艾森曾经是一名运输机飞行员,有过国际以及跨洋飞行的经历。“这个阶段条件很稳定。高度越高,天气状况通常越好。唯一的问题是气流,偶尔会有雷暴活动。”
