Thread Name: Are you scared of planes now?
Subject: RE: Are you scared of planes now?
Well, I wasn't afraid to fly before, well maybe never 100 percent comfortable even before 911, but I sure as hell won't fly now, especially over American airspace.

The recent announcement today of the expanded NO FLY ZONES over strategic sites in the US, such as dams and stuff (and who knows what else) has seen to that. The thought of being on a commercial flight that runs into bad weather and has to alter its course slightly and is gunned down by "friendly fire" has managed to smash the last vestige of confidence I might have had. Guess I'm not going to Arizona for a visit this fall after all.
