I don’t have a fear of flying. I have a fear of crashing.
I’m not trying to be funny. That perfectly describes my feelings about being in the air.
I love the fact that we can be ABOVE the clouds looking down on the earth…something that generations of mankind could only dream about. I also love the fact that it’s so easy and convenient and sometimes cheap.
The part I don’t like is biting my nails the entire time. Imagine the entire ride staring at the wing, praying that whoever needed to turn a bolt or tighten a screw, did just that. That’s me.
Anyway… Flying is statistically safer than driving. I get it. But still… video like this is terrifying.
Safe travels.
Terrifying video shows an engine of United Airlines flight 328 on fire.
The plane was forced to return to Denver International Airport after it suffered an engine failure shortly after takeoff. https://t.co/s9BcWMAEZI pic.twitter.com/eFTuXIpxMi
