Just read about the crash. That’s terrifying that a downburst of air can just sort of happen and push a climbing plane down into a crash.
I’ll never be comfortable with flying.
The good news is that we are much better at determining when/if a microburst may happen. That, and we have better radar that just keeps planes from flying into a storm.
