[EN] Accidents are results of a sum of mishaps and unfortunate occurrences, and are defined as
occurrences associated with the operation of an aircraft which takes place between the time
any person boards the aircraft with the intention of flight until all such persons have
disembarked. We cannot know when are they going to happen, so we should be prepared for
actuating correctly for these.
In this project, we are going to make an estimation of the probabilities and the risk of accident
focusing in one aircraft, the Airbus 320 family, which includes A318, A319, A320 and A321.
We have divided it into four parts. The first part includes an introduction and a brief description
of the Airbus company, and some specifications of each aircraft of the family with some main
differences among them. The second part is a definitions section, in which we explain what is an
accident and some key words to understand the project, and some concepts like definitions of
phases of flight, undesirable events, natures of flight, categories of flight and airplane damages.
The third part consist of an analysis of the database we have selected to study, also the analysis
of an Airbus report of accidents between years 1958 and 2014, comparing the results of each
range of dates. The last part consists on the calculation part, in which we obtain the probabilities
of each accident occurred, the measure of the risk and the conclusions.
