And now the chances are about even that you'll end up on the flight with the hijackers on board...or there'll be some guy on the ground with a Stinger shooting at ya....Theres just a higher body-count potential... Hell I dont know.

That is exactly how I feel, you will loose 200 or 100 or whatever is on board to a crash vs 1-2 people in a car crash. The one guy that survived this crash I feel for him but at the same time I am happy he did make it out alive.
it's just scary to fly period you just never know when it's your time and I don't want to leave any quicker than I have to.
