I’ve become terrified of flying over the last year or so. I know planes are over engineered and essentially never crash from even the most severe turbulence. My fear is specifically around placing my life in the hands of a random pilot who may either be suicidal or “zone out” at a critical moment. The GermanWings flight and (very likely) MH370 were brought down by suicidal pilots. There have been other incidents as well. The AirFrance flight a few years ago was brought down by the flight crew spiraling into a panic. Plane designs are already crazy safe and get safer all the time. Pilots scare me. I can’t wait until we have some kind of pilot less plane.
