what are the chances?

hi all

im training for my ppl with 3 hours logged.. my problem is i feel very nervous. hopefully this will pass, but i cant help thinking that this engine is all im relying on up here! is it normal at this point in ppl training to feel this way? anyone else had this nervous feeling?

also how common is engine failure and what is the survival rate of this situation on a single engine aircraft? i would be very intrested to hear how long you guys have been flying and whats been youre worst experience till now?

forgive me if this post seems silly to you old timers, but as an inexperianced wanna be pilot i cant help but be curious of answers to these questions. maybe im a little to safety conscious, i just wanna have peace of mind and enjoy my flying wich i really do love.

thanks
