Flying is O.K.
It’s when the aircraft stops flying and it’s still at altitude. Then there are real problems.
I’ve flown probably 200 times. There are only 3 times out of that where I was rather concerned.
I’ve flown just a handful of times. My first flight ever was to Ireland. I had no fear, it was thrilling. I later was on a domestic flight that had to change course because of major turbulence, again no fear. Somewhere between then and now I developed a huge fear. We went to Mexico last year and I was tense the entire flight. I decided never to fly again and my frugal husband said Amen!
Make that probably more like 150. I forgot I didn’t travel on the road as much on one job (at first).
Me too I had some flights that were smooth as
could be not even a ripple (the longest leg from ny to India) and one
of the last one or 2 we had turbulence for a
1/2 of a sf to ny flight where I was in the farthest
Rear seat left (the buckingest bronco in the plane)
and just hung onto the arm rest with my head
against the window shade until we landed
My 2nd most dangerous was when we landed at DEN
then the pilot suddenly gunned it back into the air and took
a loop and landed again it was a Frontier jet taxiing in its path
(I heard that happens a lot there)
My 1st was on the ground on 9/11 when I decided not
to go inside but the 2nd jet crashed over my head 2 blocks away
and I still ducked from flying debris I thought would kill me
Its when the aircraft stops flying and its still at altitude. Then there are real problems.
