Stop and think about it. You are safer in an airplane than you are in a car. If not, there wouldn't be any airplanes! Stands to reason, eh? Edie
PS - It is a lot of fun, especially flying to Las Vegas, which is 3 hours from us. Iowa is 1/2 hour! I like that, also! You can bring along a crossword puzzle book, or some embroidery. If you are thinking of bringing a scissors, don't. I use a seam ripper as my scissors in the airplane. Works like a charm.
