I think that the best piece of advise on this thread for the nervous flyer is to avoid threads like this, even though it was started by someone asking for advise.
Photos of crashed planes and recommendations for the best place to sit during a cartwheeling crash, a head-on or if there is a fire ?? !!
I wouldn't say I was nervous, more just apprehensive and I read such threads thinking I might find something helpful or at least some sympathy.
Was this an off the wall attempt at being helpful or people just taking the mick ?
