About This Quote

As the saying goes, “The fewer moving parts, the better.” The less complicated an object or system is, the less likely it will fail. This is the reason that devices like automobiles are safer than airplanes. If you notice, airplanes have many moving parts that can break down and cause a malfunction at any time. To prevent this from happening to aircrafts, engineers have made them as safe as possible by making them operate with fewer moving parts. When one of those moving parts breaks down, it becomes more important for the rest of the aircraft to stay in its proper place.
