Several news channels today reported the rapid descent of an Airbus 380 aircraft. It diverted to an airport in Kazakhstan.
This was probably alarming for the passengers but a routine procedure for the pilots who practice this frequently.
Yesterday the Daily Telegraph printed an article on aviation security under the title “What price safety?” We know that much of the content of a newspaper is to fill the columns to make us think we’re getting value for money.
For the last 20 years I’ve been disappointed by most articles … expecting that I’ll find out something valuable about second hand cars or pensions or property or travel destinations.
The BBC have been profiling the subject of turbulence both on the air and on their website.
I get the feeling that there is a news item available that can connect nicely with the popular mis conceptions about turbulence.
