Statistically speaking, Airplanes are safer than cars on highways! I've been riding in airplanes, small and large, since I was about 7 years old. Met a Naval Aviator and married him shortly after I graduated from college. 2 years later, he went to work for Pan Am. I've travelled a LOT and never been in an airplane accident, but I've been in a car that was hit by another car (not our fault) 4 different times.
