Between Carley McCord and now this, you couldn’t pay me any amount of money to fly on those fricking things

Nope. I love flying private whenever I can.

Man I said the same thing after the Skynyrd crash.

. Flying is still much safer than driving. This is an idiotic post unless you are also refusing to get in a car.

Fatal vehicle wrecks happen pretty much daily.. And I still ride in vehicles so no.

People say driving is more dangerous than flying, and it’s true. However, I have comfort knowing I can control my car. I cant control a plane or helicopter, and I hate that feeling of helplessness.

I’m definitely not getting in a helicopter anytime soon

I have a friend who I’ve flown with in a small 4 seater plane. None of this scares me from flying with him.

How often do you hear of celebrities dying in a car wreck?
Paul Walker died for being a dumbass in a car.

Even more these recent events you still hear it happen often.

I’ve always been scared of small planes but especially helicopters. One thing my in-laws wanted to give us as a wedding gift was a helicopter ride over NYC. Thankfully they asked us if we would want that and we politely declined. I’m not scared of flying but I don’t think I could physically force myself into a helicopter. I would just freeze.

You can’t make many guarantees in life, but I can guarantee you one thing...I will absolutely, 100% NOT die in a helicopter crash.

My buddy was talking about taking his brothers small plane to Atlanta for the Peach Bowl and i said no thanks, those things crash far too often. Two days later the McCord accident happens. I have no issues with commercial airlines.

Your chance of death is astronomically higher in a aeronautical crash vs automobile crash.
