Plane Crash - Where will you be sitting?

[oddsonlaughter]

I remember hearing on the radio once that the crash position is because they know the chances of survival are slim and it looks the neck in place making it easier to take peoples dental records to identify the dead

At C4 now by chance, looking at a bit of the door from the crash.

I do a lot of work for a large aviation parts and spares company and that is a myth - albeit a good one.

I picked first class - there HAS to be a reason why first class is situated where it is. Otherwise, what point is there in upgrading from Cattle class? Safety first

11th October, choose your seats.

Channel 4 - The Plane Crash.

I've gone with 22F, it it being what I normally get due to the extra leg room. Although I fully expect them both to come off.

God speed and god bless, all ye who sail on her.

On a different plane

32F by the exit and the toilet should be fine. Yikes!

Eat the vegetarians.

Before the aircraft food, yes.

I really want to watch this on Thursday, it looks like a very interesting documentary .... but I'm flying to Croatia the following day, and I'm not the most confident air traveller as it is!

Does anyone else find this in slightly bad taste? Or am I just getting old?

When does the point come, when you ask yourself - Am I really in the right career?

considering their aim is to crash a plane they couldnt not get anybody with better experience really. He has found his dream job

This is the most unrealistic plane crash possible. It was driven head-first in to a desert.

I sit nearest to the correct door to get the feck out of the plane quickly on landing (a normal one), so 18C on an ATR72 or 2C on an A320...

Sorry to disappoint you, the only reason first class is at the front of an aircraft is there is less noise due to being in front of the engines.
Very few people survive air crashes sitting forwards of the wings.

In the film Alive, were the survivours at the rear of the plane ?

Is 'in the black box' an option.
Someone had to say it.
