The 737 NEO is 0.07. Earlier 737 models predate the Airbus 320 by nearly 20 years. The equivalent Boeing planes are marginally safer in context.
The 737 MAX has a horrible ratio because it’s very new and had a very serious flaw on launch which caused multiple crashes. Whether or not it’s equivalently safe now is yet to be proven.
- cm2187 3y agoThe point is that even the 737 max number is minuscule and not worth worrying if you are only flying a few times a year. People are bad at understanding tiny numbers. The probability of not crashing on the Max being 999,997 out of 1,000,000 I think is a bit easier to process.
