that would make for quite and uncomfortable and unpredictable landing indeed.

Might work for helcopters or small planes, but not for commerical planes because of the SPEED they fly.
Another reason not to have a parachute is that the flight is no longer controlled once a parachute is deployed.
The big planes "parachute" are its wings, which allow for a controlled descent, usually 8 lengths or more of flight for every length down.

What are you talking about?
If you mean so it can land, there's a little bit of information that you need for your answer. Even with a huge parachute the airplane will hit the ground at 20-25 miles per hour. Obviously this would destroy the plane and severely injure or kill everyone inside.

Or give every passenger a parachute as a carry-on!

it would either burn up or not allow the plane to fly
