Mainly, the fact that the kid working at ticket counter could not turn off the alarm that kept going off. I figured if JetBlue workers can't even turn off an annoying alarm, how can they keep a metal tube flying at 7 miles in the sky?Maybe their pilots get a bit more training than their ticket counter people? Seriously, flying in a commerical airplane has become a totally unpleasant experience for many reasons. And every now and then a pilot or ground controller screws up and kills a few hundred people. But it's so incredible rare. Of the people I know who have died violent deaths, most of the deaths have been partially or wholly self-caused (principally suicide and an enjoyment of climbing dangerous mountains). But of those who died unnaturally through absolutely no fault of their own, one was a pedestrian killed by a car, one was a bicyclist killed by a truck, one was a passenger killed in the car she was riding in, and one was murdered. No plane crash victims in the bunch. |
