I still hate to get on an airplane—only a dire emergency with my scattered family would induce me to to so………..

Also, I hate that none of the passengers or crew is armed.

I'm noot afraid of flying, I just don't like many of the passengers. They are loud, boorish,dress like slobs, and are always yaking on their cell phones. The experience of having to show up hours early, being groped and scanned, and having your flight often delayed or cancelled is another negative. Air travel today is very much like bus travel was a generation ago, except you can get better food at the airport.

FYI- about 25% of flights have pilots with firearms. Pretty high number actually.

We r flying this summer for the first time with our son to Michigan. I am now having 2nd thoughts. Of course I was having these thoughts when we decided to fly but I don’t want my son to never fly. However, Michigan has a large population of Muslims in Dearborn so I have been warned to be prepared that there will probably be more than a few on the plane!!!
