Having a father who was an engineer at Sikorsky, and then following that path in life myself ruined roller coasters for me. Besides being afraid of heights I wonder how good the design and maintenance is, and if they considered fatigue life.

On the other hand when I fly aerobatics I have confidence in the airplane, plenty of altitude, and a chute.
