They say that air travel is statically the safest way to travel. And it
is! Think about it: Any random weirdo can apply and get a provisional
driving license and go drive around (theoretically with a qualified
driver supervising them) the same day. WTF is *that* about??
By contrast, becoming a commercial aviation pilot takes years. And there
has to be two of you. And the entire plane undergoes regular mechanical
checks. (Theoretically you're supposed to check your tires every time
your drive your car. HOW MANY PEOPLE DO THIS??) And you've got air
traffic control directing you. And... get the picture?
