What is the safest part of an airplane?
The Safest seat in an airplane would be the one closest to the bulk head. This is the part of the airplane that is directly over the wing, it is heavily reinforced to take the stresses of suspending the wing while the aircraft is grounded as well as the weight of the aircraft during flight thus making the seats located near it more likely to survive a crash. The seat closest to the bulk head is also usually identified by the emergency exit due to its orientation to the wing. Some people also believe that the back of the airplane is another safe place based on the fact that they would be the last to receive an impact during head on crash. Another bonus to these seats is that they are usually sold last making area less crowded.
