"First, GA flying is not a death-defying activity undertaken by risk-loving daredevils. Yes, there is risk. And yes, GA pilots can certainly do a better job of managing and mitigating that risk. More on that point, and how you can help, elsewhere in this issue. Certification and maintenance requirements for both GA aircraft and GA pilots are a lot more demanding than most people realize. Certificated aircraft (as opposed to amateur-built) must meet stringent safety requirements, and they are subject to thorough inspections on at least an annual basis (hence the term “annual”). GA airplanes are also subject to a specific, structured preflight inspection that the pilot performs before each flight. (parsons)"

Flying may be uncomfortable and boring but there is several ways to enjoy your flight like the food is usually surprisingly good and the people you meet might have a interesting story or going somewhere exotic(Kaisa)

"Planes are the closest thing to a time travel machine. When you were a kid, you may have dreamed of transporting instantly from one place to another. The planes that most of us fly aren’t exactly time travel machines but they can definitely set up of one of my favorite sensations: culture shock. Go back to what it was like to be a kid for a second, you wanted to have this time travel machine because you wanted to escape where you were and go to a place that was completely different."
