As a former pilot who still moves the sticks a little bit with my neighbor who has a Cub and his own run way, I get the part about the drive to the airport being more dangerous, statistically, than any commercial flight.

I know the numbers.

What and who I hate are my fellow passengers I am stuck with for the duration in a sliver of aluminum that flies because of fire and exhaust, with bad air and food.

They, my fellow travelers, are bloated, oafish and selfish, given to dressing and acting poorly, ill equipped for the slightest of emergencies. The video is simply proof of that.

If I never fly again on a commercial airliner I will rejoice.

I have been everywhere I want to go, btw, twice; so spare me any advice that the planet somehow has a Roadside Attraction I need to witness. It doesn't.

Best.
