Several recent high-profile plane crashes, including an Oct. 31 EgyptAir disaster that claimed 217 lives, have once again caused airline safety to come into question. What do you think?

  I feel we should all make airline safety a top priority, devoting as much attention to it as possible for two or three weeks after every major crash.

  Actually, air travel is still safer than driving, especially if you need to go to Europe or Asia.

  When I think of the people lost in this latest tragedy over the Atlantic, I can't help but ask: Why didn't they use their seat cushions as a flotation device? Why?

  How's about they have some kind of spare plane on board in case anything happens to the regular plane?

  I stopped flying on commercial jets when I discovered that there's something else that has wings: my imagination.

  Sorry about that EgyptAir thing, but those planes take fuckin' hours to inspect, and, well, I got a social life, you know.
