I’ve read far too many post-incident reports on fatal plane crashes and their root causes - almost all of which were because humans took shortcuts in maintenance, repair, or design on the plane. Also the occasional traffic controller or pilot who fucked up bigtime.
I would rather ride my shitty 1984 Honda trail across the continental US than step on a plane. Mostly because I know the jackass who does repairs on my bike.

Unfortunately, roads in the US are populated with Americans. So… 🤷
Im from California and have gone up and down the western US. The only place I would actively go out of my way to avoid is Utah.
