I have to admit, I haven't flown since 9/11, and I really don't want to ever again. I know I will eventually, someday.

Personally, I've never had a problem flying. I believe in September 2001, more Americans died in automobile accidents than in terrorist attacks. And that was a very bad month for terrorist attacks, but a pretty normal month for car accidents.

9/11 notwithstanding, I'm still safer getting on a plane than I am driving to the airport.

i havent flow since 9/11 either, but im ( proberbly ) gonna fly again next summer vacation to the US. 9/11 didnt change my though about flying, it proberbly safer these days, with FAM's ( federal air marcheals ) onboard US flyeds and increased safety things.
Remember the only thing you have to fear its fear it self.
the terrorist primatie wapen is fair, so try not to get cought by it.
