If flying by plane is safe, why there is a place in the airport called TERMINAL?

WHY IS A PLANE'S BLACK BOX YELLOW

Scary and if the black box always survives why don't they make the plane out of the same material

Funny. It so turns out that the word "terminal" also refers to a major junction on a transportation line, or either end of said transportation line. In this case, the mode of transportation is via airplane.

So you won't get hit by a moving plane.

When you get up to about 36000 feet there is a region of speed VS height called Coffin Corner.

Well, look at the definition of TERMINAL.
"Of, at , relating to, or forming a limit, boundary, extremity, or end."
In this case its referring to the place where you cross to enter or exit the plane. Its the beginning or end of the airport for you. This is why it shares the word with death being terminal. Its where you exit.

LOL - *nods* Classic. There's a lot of humor around planes and airports, especially if you can get an old pilot talking.


leigh
oh thanks, I'm flying soon and never thought of it like that, thanks a bunch that's definitely on a need to know bases and I didn't need to know!

that's for the passengers who booked on the unsafe planes

PS Is it a place in the airport or the airport?


M J H
It's where the terrorists wait to board the planes....

.... flying isn't necessarily safe


Steve C
because TERMINAL means end - and this is where you end your journey (or perhaps start it) but other people will end their journey there too.

In context it is fine - terminal can mean other things in other contexts
