What kind of plane crashes are there where you have a good chance of surviving? I'd have guessed the only ones where everyone survives are where they run off the runway at half speed and bump around a bit on an empty field of grass.
Surely if something happens in mid air and you're not able to make it back to a runway and actually land the plane your odds would be complete shite (<5%?)
"From 1983 through 2000, NTSB investigated 26 accidents involving fire, serious injury and either substantial aircraft damage or aircraft destruction. There were 2,739 occupants involved in these serious accidents; 1,524 (55.6 percent) of the occupants survived the accident, 716 (26.1 percent) of the occupants died from impact, 340 (12.4 percent) died from unknown causes, 12 131 (4.8 percent) died from fire/smoke, and 28 (1.0 percent) died from other causes."
Well it depends on the type of crash really. Landing gear failure has a fairly high survival rate for example, on the other hand MCAS-related crashes are pretty damn lethal compared to everything else.
