Most people tend to not worry about being in an aircraft accident. After all, you’ve probably heard that you’re more likely to be injured in a car than on a plane. Nevertheless 1,722 aircraft accidents happened in the United States in 2007, according to statistics from the National Transportation Safety Board. Of these accidents, 299 were fatal and 535 people were killed.
