Every successful flight is a crash that didn't happen

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
Rules of flying. Number of take off's must equal number of landings.
How many people have you known who were injured or killed in an airplane accident?

BOKKE“Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together.

Well, i now know 8 people injured in an airplane accident, and have 1 killed.
And i know 9 in auto accidents.
I get ur jist.
But somehow, flying is still scarier than driving. maybe its because humans were made to be on the ground, not in the air.

Before my flight out of Perth last week, there was some lunatic at the airport screaming about how humans weren't meant to fly and how it was against nature and god's law. Unfortunately, he turned out to be our pilot.

Humans do fine in the air. It's when they hit the ground that things get ugly.

Emirates are top of my list at the moment - sorted out my change of flight and got me booked into a hotel in Dubai for free because of a long transfer.
Oh and the lovely staff on my flight back last time helped me mend my belt when it broke - had a great giggle rummaging in the galley to see what would do the trick. Basically a lot less 'up themselves' than the usual hosties.
Keeping the Faith ... right here in Perth!
agree EM,Emirates are tops
QANTAS got me to Sydney safely, will the same be said for the flight to Melbourne on Friday?
Qantas is safe. If it starts being banned from EU airspace like many airlines, then you can worry.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal:
it is the courage to continue that counts.
