you are statistically more likely to die in a car wreck than a plane crash

I know so many people (family and friends) that fly for a living. I wouldn't be worried about it at all.

Especially since 9-11. Air travel is a huge ------- PITA.

thats what makes it true. if people flew as much as they drive the statistic would be different

Of course your safer in a plane...how many planes are in teh world compared to cars....Look at the numbers and if 100 planes crashed a day, it would be "safer" than a car. The ratio's will always say a plane is safer.

Incorrect. Rate of plane crashed vs rate of car crashes are seperated by an order of magnitude.

Welcome to professionally serviced equipment operated by professional pilots.

If you had any idea how much testing goes into aerospace parts, you wouldn't worry. But if you knew how they fixed planes you probably would.
