Hey guys
,
my apologies if this seems like a dumb question, but how safe is AA in these days of seeming financial crisis?
I'll be flying with them in about two weeks and I'm already !!!!ting my pants.
Yeah, I'm scared of flying.
I know, statistically flying is the safest mode of transportation etc, but the fact remains that there still are fatal incidents happening, and I always think that my flight's gonna be next.
Especially since I read about the FAA maintenance issue earlier this year, and those crashes in 2001 and 1979 (which, according to what I read, was due to a maintenance mistake as well). I know those probably won't happen again the exact same way, and the airline learns from mistakes, but I'm frightened nonetheless.
I just want to make it safe to my destination. Any calming words would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
