How many planes take off and land everyday around the world?
Answers:
lots they take off every 2 mins for about 19 hours aday at 1 airport in the UK so erm do you wanna do the maths
about 15 I tihnk
Thousands!
But you could always have a quick count and report back to us when your done!
about 2 every hour
Don't know but HR a plane takes off every 4 minutes during the day so I guess its a lot.
every 30 seconds from heathrow unless some twat and we all know what sort im talking about decide to jeperdise it.
Hopefully all of them!
Any planes that take off will land as well eventually (one way or another) but I was told around 3000 an hour so 24 hours is 72,000
At London Gatwick they take off and land every 30 seconds for approx 18 a day every day, the answer you require will probably be over a million if you count the small aerodromes as well perhaps ten times that amount.
according to us department of transportation, it is nearly 55000 a year in US alone, and US take about 40 percent of total world plane transportation in 2005
its almost in the hundred thousands i think, but it all depends on the day of the week, time of the month, and what season it is. Also there are more things that influence this weather, mechanical issues.
So, in short there is no constant number everyday, you can only get a rough estimate.
Check Colin Moynihan's "Airport". Contains all sorts of other surprising facts too, about air travel, planes and airports. Eg: what happens to the unused liqueurs after the flight? How do pilots know it's OK to land in fog? How do they shoo birds off runways? Etc.
This only shows aircraft in the air over the US right now, check it out
