Have any commerical planes dropped out of the sky for no reason?

Answer 1

No, there is always at least a reason why a plane crashes, though it may not be easily found.

Answer 2

1

Answer 3

wind sheer is the biggest problem but with the new systems they can predict the high probably of wind sheer it usually happens on landing in really bad weather. Nothing to really worry about.

Answer 4

First, please understand that aviation accidents of any kind are extremely rare. They are covered heavily by the news media because they are RARE, not because they are common. Literally millions of completely successful and uneventful flights are completed for every flight that is disrupted even slightly by an incident or accident.

Next, understand that airplanes DO NOT ever just "fall out of the sky." There are rough landings and encounters with the terrain of various kinds, but an airplane falling straight down would occur only in the most catastrophic circumstance. And there is always a reason, and all incidents and accidents are investigated in detail by safety authorities to see what can be learned from the events.

Answer 5

0- there is always a reason, also they dont drop out of the sky, more of a controlled glide towards the earth.

Answer 6

No, airline jets don't fall from the sky for no reason. There has to be a reason why a plane would be to crash.

Answer 7

well there is always a reason, ive never heard of one at cruiseing altitutde falling out without contacting the tower theyve lost engines but they usually glide to a landing or restart the engine,,, southern 242 tried to land on a highway in alabama, some survived

Answer 8

Well they have never dropped out of the sky without a reason (either found at time of crash or after the investigation) but don't ya'll forget the famous Bermuda Triangle. Many aircraft commercial and US Navy (TBM Avengers) have dropped out of radar/sonar and just plain sight.

Answer 9

planes sometimes drop out of the sky but there is always a reason

Answer 10

There were a couple of planes which dropped out of the sky for no apparent reason. Then , upon further investigation, it was determined that wind shear was involved. The planes were flying at safe altitudes but strong down currents forced them into the ground.
