But the big difference is when you are few km above, there is no emergency stop, you are dead!
Only 10% with talent and experience like had been war veteran pilots - flying planes that gets shot at all the time, losing engine, losing rudder, losing parts of the wings, got bullet holes in cockpit, got fuel tank shot leaking, got hydraulic & fuel pipe burst from missiles, only these pilots can past handling emergencies.
The Chow Ang Moh who managed to land in Hudson River when airplane gone CB was a combat aircraft veteran pilot who survived his wars.
There are many cases of wings getting frozen full of ice from cloud moisture. Killed many many.
Most land vehicle drivers , for cars, vans, taxis, bus, trucks, MRT, motorbikes, are going to fail emergency handling. e.g. you suddenly burst a tire, your power-steering fucked to the Left/ Right by itself, you gearbox suck in wrong gear, your engine caught fire, your wheel shaft broke and your wheel left you! Your ABS starts to jam break on one wheel, your penultimate failed your break jammed, your tyre (common for bus & truck long distance) caught fire, breaks burnt away (common for all heavy vehicles going down slops from mountain roads)
You think most drivers can handle these? NO WAY!
Just only 10% can, but they may still survive because they are not few kilometers in the sky that is the big diff.
