How Common Are Aviation Accidents?

Commercial airline crashes are relatively rare. However, when they do happen, the results are often catastrophic. The number of people killed worldwide in aviation accidents rose in 2020, despite more than a 50% decrease in the actual number of crashes.

According to information collected by Reuters, five of the 40 commercial airline crashes in 2020 were fatal, resulting in 299 fatalities. In 2019, there were 86 commercial plane crashes. Eight of those were fatal, resulting in 257 deaths.

Crashes involving general aviation aircraft are more common. General aviation includes all aircraft except for the military and commercial airlines.

A preliminary report from the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) for 2020 shows that there were 1,047 general aviation crashes in 2020. Of those, 188 were fatal, resulting in 250 total deaths.

Preliminary data collected by AOPA for 2021 as of late October indicate 682 general aviation crashes. Of those, 118 caused fatalities, resulting in 207 people killed.

How Much is My Aviation Accident Case Worth?

Many factors can affect the value of your case. Cases involving serious injury or death tend to bring higher awards.

How much compensation you could receive depends on:

  • How severe your injuries are
  • Whether you suffered a disability from the accident
  • If your injuries prevented you from working (and for how long)
  • Whether you did anything to mitigate your losses
  • Whether you require future rehabilitation
  • Whether you’re able to return to work in the same job
  • How much your normal life activities are limited

It’s important to consult a Clearwater aviation accident attorney who has experience with your type of case. With a pilot on our legal team, we know what issues to look for and how to put you in the best position to receive all of the money you deserve.

We treat you like family.
