Some of you may have read about the Boeing 737 that went down Sunday in Brazil with 155 lives lost. What was amazing was that the reason the plane went down was rapidly discovered - it had been in a mid-air collision with a diminutive executive jet, that sustained damage but managed to land with all seven on board safe and sound. Even more amazing was that a New York Times journalist was on board and his story is now online Colliding With Death at 37,000 Feet, and Living. I have to admit a mid-air is not something I ever worry about when flying, at least not in commercial planes.
