In Defense of Flying

After reading yet another article about the nightmare of flying I found myself wondering, what am I not seeing?   I don’t fly often, certainly that’s part of it.   But I have always found airport personnel to be a friendly, helpful lot.   Once I am through security I relax and enjoy a good book, people watching and revel in the anticipation of an adventure.  Maybe that’s it.  I don’t fly for business, nor do I fly anywhere routinely.  So to those airport workers, doing their best to keep us safe I say Thank You!
