I love flying in fact I would become a pilot if I had the money. Turbulence is like a roller coaster everyone say weeeeeee. And taking off is like a rocket the plane stops for a few seconds warms up the engines and woooooosh your doing 100 down the run way. I just hate the fact my ears are always popping....annoying! Also dont mension any 9-11 on the plane they will probably pull out a tazer gun and tazer you to death and dont reach at your shoes they will think your shoes is a bomb...go figure.

Yeah just dont worry about flying. it's really safe, it is. with the beefed up security at airports, flying has NEVER been more safe.

I once saw this statistic that showed various means of death and by how much time they detracted from the national life expectancy. It said that in the United States, plane crashes every year take off only 1 hour of the average lifespan, whereas car accidents took of two weeks. Murder and cancer took off three weeks. There some others that were strikingly shocking.
Either way, it's safe flying an airplane. It's unfortunate that our media likes to completely cover every single plane crash in the country and just try to scare the crap out of us...

I too hated flying, even after 2.5 years...and I still hate flying.
I look at it this way now, if you're going to crash, it will be a rough couple of minutes, then you won't feel anything.

I think I look at it the same way I'm not flying so I have no control over the situation. anyway as long you guys don't get floppy or Harry on your ass you'll be fine remember default chute key is 9
