I've worked in commercial aviation for 20+ years. In that time I have flown on hundreds of trips, on aircraft of all sizes, ages and manufacturers. I have visited crash sites mid-cleanup and had the odd sensation of smelling familiar airplane smells perverted by burned Jet-A. I have provided logistical support to families grieving the loss of their loved ones due to the actions of the airline I worked for. In other words, I have spent a lot of time highly aware of how catastrophic a crash can be, but I never felt unsafe flying in all that time because the system itself still felt safe.
Last week my kid flew to Florida, and I have never been so nervous. I almost told them to cancel but that would have freaked them out even more and made me look crazy. But the system doesn't feel safe now. It is not in safe hands.
May I offer a roll or two of duct tape? Done properly, it can fix everything.
We prefer Speed tape. It's a little stronger but just as ubiquitous.
I had to look up what that was. Very happy I did.
