Flying in an airplane with an experienced pilot and a well maintained airplane is pretty safe and likely 100 times safer than driving down the interstate.

Your odds of getting into a plane crash or dying in a plane crash are 1 in 5.3 million.

Many people fly in airplanes on a daily basis and they arrive at their destination just fine even though many people do fear flying.

I used to fear flying myself but after going on about 50 flights so far I no longer fear it.

I actually no longer fear death either as I've come to accept the fact of death which is all gonna happen to us anyway.

Eventually we are all gonna die either of old age, health issues, car accident, other accident etc.
