Jakarta, Spami-id.com - Aircraft are the most effective public transportation for a long distance.
That's because planes can travel fast over the air without any obstacles.
However, there are a number of areas that prevent aircraft from airborne so that pilots should fly away. Any area? Here are the five boroughs that can't cross the plane:
- Himalayas
The Himalayas have some high mountaintops, one of which is the Everest Summit of 8,848 meters. The plane could have flown beyond that altitude, but the pilot chose to avoid the roof of the world.
The reason for that is if the plane is experiencing an emergency then the pilot has to drop altitude to 3,000 meters to solve the oxygen supply problem. It's very dangerous because that point is close to the average height of the Himalayas. The plane needs to curl up and avoid the mountains and of course it's very risky.
- Antarctica
Antarctica is one of the continents in the South Pole. This continent has mountains covered with snow and strong winds. This condition can lower pilot visibility which is certainly extremely dangerous.
Another reason is that if something happens to make it possible for an emergency landing, then the Antarctic field is very difficult for pilots to land. The passengers also find it difficult to deal with the conditions in Antarctica while waiting for help.
- North Pole
The Arctic has a geomagnetic field. If you travel to this polar bear house, don't bring a compass because it won't work there. It also applies to the plane's navigation system.
The planes flying in this area will be compromised by the navigation system due to a very powerful and often changing magnetic field. The pilots will be confused when they want to land the plane because they'll have a hard time finding the right runway.
- Disney World and Disneyland
Ever had a dream to go and spend time at Disney World or Disneyland? The entertainment company Walt Disney built was so vast that it went to the amusement park. However, don't expect to see the recreation from above the plane because there's no flying ban in that area.
In 2003, Disney Corporation imposed a no-fly ban on both areas for security issues. It's meant to keep the visitors safe if there's a plane that has problems and needs emergency landing in the Disney area.
- Pantex Nuclear Factory, Texas
Pantex Plant is a nuclear plant in Amarillo, Texas, which is useful for guarding and securing all United States nuclear materials. The U.S. government forbids airplanes in this area because it doesn't want anything bad to happen like a deadly nuclear explosion.
