Looks like nobody wants to be 35,000 feet above Ukraine right now.

of course they don't - i don't think anyone would want to fly above a region that ate planes recently. it's only logical

This attack killed a larger percentage of our (Dutch) people than 9/11 killed of American people.

Likelihood of accidents is one thing. Likelihood of surviving an accident is another thing. I have an acute fear of flying.

I've never been in one just because my family prefers driving everywhere.  I wouldn't mind anything about accident likelihood though especially since the odds are hundreds of times in my favor.

I heard about this, it really is a catastrophe. I have a feeling that the Malaysian Government will not allow Malaysian Airlines to operate anymore, and I would be completely with them if they made that decision.
