Your last statement is key. Airplanes do not fall out of the sky. How else did the pilots of US1549 land their aircraft? I'm not trying to make you feel bad for thinking that airplanes are worse than any other form of transportation. You may feel that if you read a book or article about how flying works for a passenger's perspective, your fear of flying may be reduced.

I am a private pilot, so I don't have the amazing knowledge that a commercial pilot has, however I do have background on the basic principles of aviation in the US. My mom doesn't do so well with airplanes so I bought her this book, which has made her more interested and less scared. Aviation really is an interesting field and the more you know, the less you will be afraid.
