The experiment cost about half a million dollars. The aircraft crashed into the ground at a speed of 225 km / h. That does not correspond to the full collapse, in which chances to survive, as a rule, no one else has, and a hard landing.
During the experiment, it was found that the aircraft in a collision with the surface takes on the brunt of the nose. So much risk are business class passengers, whose seats are located directly behind the cab and hence the pilots. But economy class passengers sitting in the last row, may well survive the emergency landing
The experts participating in the test crash Boeing Tip: If comfort during the flight is not a priority, it is best to buy tickets in economy class and sit in the rear of the ship, a couple of rows from the emergency exit
