In the safety 'demonstration' before you take off nowadays, the stewardesses don't even sook the nozzle thing any more. So they're of even less use than they were before.

Pity the French can't learn to keep their aeroplanes in the air for as long as their hands!

But I thought you were a seasoned traveller. During my last year in Saudi Arabia I flew sixty-four times, almost exclusuvely with the surprisingly safe and efficient Saudia Airlines, and any plane crash nowadays gives me shivers, especially where so many Europeans are involved. Several Brits and Irish are also feared dead. It surprises me that people on here don't seem to care less.:confused:
