Flying Without Wings

In this country, where plane accidents become a trend *sad to say, really*, I found several changes of passenger behaviour. To name a view:

1. A pray before take off is a must. I saw parents told their kids to send a pray before take off.
2. Not to mention to bring whatever holly bible you believe to be read during flight. I was surprised, I saw quite number of people who actually bring their bible to the plane, and read it during the flight.
3. To - finally - listen really carefully on safety flight procedure announce by flight attendants. No one, except one or two people ever really listen to them before. At least, that's my previous experience.
4. Priest, spiritual teacher or any similar profession is more than welcome to be in the plane, since - based on perspective of some passenger - their prayer are powerfull. It's like a guarantee of the safe flight (!).
5. Number of people become airplane or air transport expert. They know exactly age of each plane, including its history.

It's become even worse. Their arguments: since it's like signing a death contract (to fly), it is better we talk to our relative before take off, in case something happened, and talk right away when we arrived, to inform that we're save.

Yes, I saw some changes, on passenger behaviour, but unfortunatelly, not changes from THE authority, those parties related with safety flight.
