Three air disasters around the world
leave 465 people dead in a week, leading some fliers to ask whether air travel
is becoming a riskier proposition.
In Ukraine, the shoot down of Malaysia
Airlines Flight 17 on July 17 killed all 298 aboard. Wednesday's crash of
TransAsia Airways Flight 222 killed 48 in Taiwan, and on Thursday, Air Algerie
Flight 5017 crashed in Mali, leaving 119 dead.
Different circumstances surround the crashes, but when as many as
704 airline passengers and flight crew lose their lives in the span of 138
days, some travelers might be concerned about the global aviation safety net.
They may wonder if, statistically, the skies are getting more
dangerous. They may ask themselves whether 2014 is trending toward one of the
deadliest years in aviation history. Experts say no, don't be nervous. Justlook carefully at the big picture.
What do you say?
