About this listen

Mass fatalities in the Air India crash and the collision of a passenger flight and a US Army helicopter over the Potomac have triggered fears that serious aviation accidents are becoming more frequent. But are they really? John Walton, editor of independent aviation journalism site TheUpFront, talks to Andrew Harrison about why panics like this start, how safe air travel really is, and how this high-emissions industry is facing up to a low-emissions future. • Read John Walton on air travel for general readers as well as insiders at TheUpFront. • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • We are sponsored by Indeed.
