The airplane industry is a very volatile industry. Various events can occur that would lead to the whole airline industry to go into a downward spiral. Clear examples of this events are the September 11 Terrorist Attacks and the 2009 Financial Crisis. However, how much of airline industry is affected due to commercial airplane crashes, and how badly does it affect the number of passengers travelling within the United States. | The airplane industry is a very volatile industry.

The airplane industry is a very volatile industry. Various events can occur that would lead to the whole airline industry to go into a downward spiral. Clear examples of this events are the September 11 Terrorist Attacks and the 2009 Financial Crisis. However, how much of airline industry is affected due to commercial airplane crashes, and how badly does it affect the number of passengers travelling within the United States.
In this project, our team intend to make use of data visualisation techniques to help correlate between airplane crashes and the fall in number of passengers travelling within the United States. We intend to answer various questions such as, the impact of an airplane crash that occurred in US compared to an airplane crash that occurred outside of the US and other questions such as what should companies do when such an incident happened.
It is difficult to predict the effect of ‘black swan’ events and how they would affect the airline industry. In the airline industry, crashes are becoming less frequent due to increase in airline safety standards and improving technology. As such, airline crashes tend to be black swan events that are almost unpredictable.
Consequently, we’d like to find out when such event happens, how much do they affect the airline industry, if at all? This would be helpful for airlines to make better decisions in terms of resource allocations when such events happen.
In this project, we will be focusing on the following:
- Identify the trend between plane crashes and the number of passengers travelling within the US over the past 15 years
- Find out if international flights or domestic flight crashes has a greater effect on the confidence of flights
- Other unlikely relationships between airplane crashes and domestic flights taken in US
