    Im scared to death of flying. I knew a guy named Rich Coburn who died on SwissAir 111 off Halifax. When you knew someone who died in a horrific plane crash where they found no piece larger than a car door and no human bodies in tact, it hits very close to home and you will never feel comfortable flying again because regardless of statistics. You have a much better chance of surviving a car crash, and the fact is it can always happen to you. You could just end up on that one doomed plane.

    It doesnt stop me from flying, but there are few things I hate more. If that didnt happen to Rich it wouldnt be as bad as it for me now, I never liked flying, but before he died it wasnt nearly as bad as it is now.

    • I really do feel a shit load better walking around in a lightning storm or getting into a car.CygnusZero4
