What is appropriate to fear on a plane?

This is a first for me, go easy..but im going to ask Scoots to expand on his answer. Which airlines?

God, i feel so dirty.

Funny you should mentioned dirt. Anyway I'm bound by an NDA.

Suffice to say, far east companies.... my god. How they don't go down more often is a testament to the engineering.

Admit it, you've been caught out again.

What makes you think that others on here haven't worked in those industries and know enough to detect your crap!

My invoices. If there were than the handful that do this detective work (we actually know each other) throughout the EU would be out of a job.

I don't chase clients, clients come to us

Talk about first world problems. You need to sip rather than guzzle

What about being on an airline that doesn't serve alcohol at all? For 6 bloody hours...

Egypt Air to Luxor/ from Cairo. Been there, done that!

Little bit dramatic, eh Scooter, given that the engine is designed and tested specifically to contain blade failures? Stating it like that as a fact implies that's what happens when they fail, which isn't really true now.

spooter talking crap? Shocked! I'm shocked I tell you!

What makes you think this is not already my client?

I did the reverse (to Cairo, from Luxor). (One or three beers would have been nice)...

I used to get terrified flying in the Middle East when all the Arabs would be yabbering into their mobiles whilst hurtling down the runway.

Seems all those fears were unfounded, after all.

My son's an air traffic controller. Aging air traffic technology is what you need to worry about.

A friend who's a retired 747 pilot always says that take-offs are more dangerous because there's not enough altitude. Landings are much safer because the one thing you can be sure about is coming down!
