Sense of fear

What I read

In "China investigates why plane dropped more than 6,000m", the news reported that a plane of China was flying from Hong Kong to Dalian, on the trip, the plane reported that they met emergency due to cabin pressure, they must drop to the lower height to make sure about the crew and passengers securely. Then the oxygen masks dropped. Passengers calm to face to this situation. The plane lost height of 6500m. Later, it came back to the normal height and arrived on time. Someone inferred to the crew was smoking in the cockpit and wrong operating of the ventilation system. Now Chinese aviation is surveying the specific reason.

My response 



When I read this news and saw the picture, I felt scared. I wasn't afraid of flying by plane before, but while I watched a movie named Final Destination and heard about Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 accident, I began to fear flying. But I can't refuse traveling by plane because it's faster than other transportation. So when I was flying, usually, I felt nervous at takeoff and landfall. Other times, if the flying was steady, I would forget my scared feel and do something for fun. Sometimes, I met unstable airflow, the plane began to shake, my heartbeat would be accelerated.

I checked some news of media coverage in China, it said that when the plane broadcast the message, the passengers didn't know why the plane was losing pressure, because they flew stable, and they thought the plane met some accidents and broken. When the oxygen masks dropped, the cabin was very quiet, they could hear the sound of each breathing. The plane recovered normal air within ten minutes of the passengers taking oxygen from the oxygen mask. But the plane broadcast the same message twice when they were flying, but they couldn't use the oxygen masks again, because it could be using for only one time. Fortunately, the second broadcast was a mistake. Maybe I shouldn't see this news, I will nervous about my flying.

    I am not afraid to take a plane. I think the plane is safer than other transportation such as car,bus or ship.

    Everyday, there are many planes in the sky,some research said 1 in million plans have an accident.So, I think airplanes are safest compared to other transportation's statistics.
