To calculate the number of alien aircraft that would need to have visited Earth to achieve the same crash rate as human aircraft, we can use the known crash rate of human aircraft and the information provided.
Given that there have been over 156,000 recorded plane crashes since the invention of powered flight, and roughly 100,000 flights take off and land every day, we can calculate the average daily crash rate of human aircraft:
Average daily crash rate of human aircraft = Total crashes / Total days of powered flight
Assuming an average of 365 days in a year ... Read even more
