An application that calculates the probability of breaking during your flight.

Am I Going Down? for iOS, it will tell you the probability of breaking up on a specific flight based on data about the fatal accidents of at least one passenger over the past ten years.







For example, the Hong Kong – Los Angeles flight of Cathay Pacific Airlines promises the opportunity not to fly with a probability of one to four million (4,068,434, to be exact) - to put it simply, you need to fly every day for 11 thousand years to finally reach .



Developer Nick Jones told MailOnline that he was inspired to create an application by his wife, whose fear of flying makes it difficult to travel. "As the simplest example: a flight from London to New York for 747-400 British Airways promises one in nine million chances to break ... Not as unequal chances as winning the National Lottery, but close to that."

Of course, the aerophobes do not penetrate with this: the argument “The chances of people who actually won the lottery, as well as the chances of people who still crashed in a plane crash before flying and buying a ticket were just as small - and yet it happened” is impenetrable.



But the part of the passengers who are balancing between panic and mind, it can really help. Therapy is not free: the cost of the application is $ 0.99. But it is harmless and cheaper than alcohol.



The data source was the United States National Transportation Safety Board, the Aviation Accident Archive, and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
