Random musings

When I was young, I flew a lot. The only time I ever got scared was during landings, because I did not like the sensation of sinking lower and lower. Then, one flight, a nice gentleman sitting next to me informed me that I had nothing to worry about, because if a problem were to occur on an airplane, it was 5 times as likely to occur during takeoff than landing.

Now, I am terrified of both takeoffs and landings.
