"Political extremism involves two prime ingredients: an excessively simple diagnosis of the world's ills, and a conviction that there are identifiable villains back of it all." ---John W. Gardner
“You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” ---C. S. Lewis
In the US I avoid some US based airlines more because of poorer service than safety concerns. Foreign airlines (including flag airlines), other than western Europe based, are on my avoid list. For the Pacific rim, other than US based, the Flag airlines are the next best (and in some cases ie Cathy Pacific they are better). KAL and JAL are both excellent choices.

I prefer not to land with the plane. It's safer that way.

I went to the airport on Tue when Trump was in town just to see Air Force One. It's high on my list of favorite planes.

My first flight was aboard one of the surplus C-47's of TTA (Trans Texas Airways, or more commonly called Tree Top Airlines) from Tyler to the USAF induction center in Dallas...As I recall altitude was limited to a couple of hundred feet because of the broken windows...Trans Caribbean Airways was a small upgrade for most of my deployments across the Atlantic, aboard one of their stretch-8's...No matter what the listed passenger capacity was I remember being told there were over 300 people on board for those flights...My favorite flight was on a Lockheed C-141 Starlifter during a 12 day trip from Holloman AFB in NM back to Spangdahlem AB in West Germany...
These days if I can't drive to where I need to be, then I don't really need to be there......Ben
