It is a hard thing to allow someone else and sophisticated equipment be in charge of our lives. All you can do is reassure yourself that flying is very safe. The riskiest part of the journey is the travel to and from the airport and we all take driving for granted. You have a much better chance of being struck by lightning or winning a lottery than being involved in an airline accident. Like driving, the more you become accustomed to the feel and sounds of flying, the more relaxed you will be.
