In the old days, airlines once stressed the sex appeal of its employees to try to get you to fly their airlines.

They don't do that anymore.

From the Department of Juxtaposition: The life of a regional airline pilot.

I was wondering if you caught that NYT article.

Despite living through one harrowing aviation incident (and my wife two), I have never had any fear of stepping on an airplane before. Never.

Until this morning when I read that article.

Now perhaps I am overreacting. Levels of risk and all that. But I'll be clear: I genuinely hope so.
