Have you ever wondered why people say "Have a safe flight?" I have. Do these people really understand how little control the passanger has in how safe the flight is? Believe me, if the passangers had any control over how safe the flight was I would not fly. There are a lot of crazies out there and at anytime one of them might decide to make a dive. I mean just imagine a husband and wife flying together and they get into an arguement: "Keep it up Alice and I'm gonna fly right into those mountains!" or "You scumbag, you slept with my best friend!" Not a good scenario. So, let's leave it up to the pilots to make it a safe flight. I suggest that the next time a family member or friend tells you to have a safe flight that you tell them to call the pilot and tell her or him to have a safe flight. I mean really that is where the real control lies.
HERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT HAVE KILLED MORE PEOPLE THAN PLANE CRASHES:
- Stinging from bees/wasps
- Slipping on ice or snow
- Choking on food
- Falling down stairs or off ladders
And did you know that 600 Americans are killed every year from falling out of bed. Have a safe sleep!
