2. Flight accident measurement and characters
􀀴 2.1 Flight accident measurement
􀁺 According to the number of accidents
􀁺 According to accident rates of different
classification accidents
Accident rates for different flight, i.e. transportation and general flight
􀂾 Accidents per 1,000,000 Flight Hours
(accidents/ flight hours*1,000,000)
􀂾 Accidents per 1,000,000 Departures
(accidents/ flights*1,000,000)
􀂾 Fatality per 100,000,000 Passenger Miles Flown
(fatalities/(passengers * miles flown)*100,000,000)
􀂾 Million Passenger Enplanements per Passenger Fatality
􀂾 And so on
