7 days to your flight · Day 4 of 7

Day 4: The people and the system watching over your flight

Two pilots who never leave the controls unattended, air traffic controllers who keep airplanes apart, and inspections that look for problems before they matter.

About 15 minutes. Breathe first: 5 minutes on the timer.

1. You're not trusting one person

A lot of flight anxiety is about control: someone else is in charge, and I can't check their work. Today's idea is that nobody on your flight is working alone. There are layers of people and rules, and each one checks the others.
