Air Safety Essay In class we had to write a persuasive essay, I chose the topic air safety. I think that air safety is very important in our lives and we should keep in mind what air safety is

Safe? In an Airplane? There are many planes taking off and landing in an airport each day. Airplanes are part of our daily lives, and we should learn how to prevent accidents. Air safety should be taken seriously. Airplanes are something that has been with us in the past, and will be with us in the years to come. In order to learn about air safety you should know about early air crashes and how aerial technology has improved, how safe you actually are on an airplane, and what you can do to be safer.

You might wonder what are some of the big disasters that happened in air and why they happened. Looking back in the past, you could see that many of the disasters happened because of the plane quality. One plane crash that happened in the 1970s was when a plane took off, lost its engine and crashed. In present day, we see more plane hijacks, rather than malfunctions. If you look at a widely known plane crash on the twin towers, you will see that terrorists attacked the plane and made it crash. Air disasters are something we look at with worry, but we all need to remember that not all planes crash and most planes get to their destination safely.

Another thing that you might wonder while you are in a plane is: “how safe am I, anyways?” To keep you from asking that question any longer, I will tell you airplanes are one of the safest modes of transportations there is. Bill Voss from Flight Safety Foundation says, “You have a 1-in-2 million chance of crashing while in an airplane”. Another thing you might worry about is medical emergencies on an airplane. Having medical issues in-flight is no problem, because about 44,000 of these emergencies happen per year and almost all of them survive. The next time you step foot into an airplane, you shouldn’t worry one bit, as you are as safe as can be.

Being on an airplane requires being safe, and if you’re safe in the air it will ensure your flight to be a pleasant ride. To keep safe while in the air, make sure you read the safety card and watching the briefing. While in your seat, you should always fasten your seatbelt. Fastening your seatbelt is very important to do so that if any unexpected turbulence comes you will be prepared. Lastly, you should remember not to bring any dangerous items on board, as they could injure someone. Being safe in the air is very important and hopefully you can remember these rules the next time you board an aircraft.

You can now see that air safety is something that we should keep in mind at all times. We should also keep in mind that airplanes are not dangerous. Air planes are one of the safest modes of transportation. Each airplane you board will not crash, as technology has improved tremendously since the Wright brothers. Air safety is a topic that we should remember for the rest of our lives.

Sunrise

The sun creeping up, The top of its head becomes clear. What a sight to see. The sun it’s so lovely, It is hard to look away.

Moon

The moon at midnight, You only want to come out then. Hiding during the daytime Crawling out at night Silver moon, you shine at night

__ Acrostic Poems __

Mango

Mangos. Always the best. Nothing is better. Great taste. Oh, they are so good!

Night

Now, the moon slowly creeps out, In or out, you can’t escape it. Ghosts, and goblins crawl through every neighborhood. Haunting one, haunting all Terrified screams are heard all during the night.

__ Color Poem __

Blue

The color of the sky, That goes on for miles on end.

The color of the ocean, Which looks as though there is no floor.

The color of the Blue Iris, Which is so beautiful, it is hard having to blink.

The color of blue, The one that is my favorite.

__ Nonet Poem __

Chocolate

Just the look of it makes you hungry Something so hard, yet so yummy The chocolate melts in your mouth You can taste the sweetness It tastes oh so good Just everything Chocolate Flavors Yum!

Me, Myself, My Life

Yesterday… I hated sitting still, But I loved the creepy crawly bugs. I was afraid of leaving my mom’s side, But I was never afraid of dim places. I never believed in the Easter Bunny, But I always believed in the Tooth Fairy.

Today… I hate spiders, But I love to bake. I am afraid of snakes, But I am not afraid of heights. I don’t believe in ghosts, But I do believe in having fun.

Tomorrow… I will hate just sitting around, But I will love to rest. I will be afraid of not being able to do anything, But I won’t be afraid of making mistakes. I won’t believe in magic, But I will believe in myself.
