In summary, a safe flight capsule is a protective enclosure installed within an aircraft to shield passengers and crew from potential hazards during flight. It works by withstanding extreme forces and impacts and providing access to essential safety equipment. The main benefits include increased safety, peace of mind, and potentially increased survivability in the event of a crash. While not currently required for all commercial airliners, some airlines have started to install them. The responsibility for ensuring their safety falls on the manufacturer and airlines must properly maintain and inspect them.

How can we bring stability to a safe flight capsule which is ejected at an altitude of 30000 feet in a commercial aircraft during disaster??

Hello Majid,

Could you provide a bit more context ? I mean: what kind of capsule, what are the constraints ? Is this an invention, or homework or is this brainstorming ?
