The Air France accident was such a tragedy, and I can understand your fear. My hubby flew to France (on Air France) on Saturday night and I hardly slept a wink, waiting for his call in the morning. I don't usually worry about him, but this was a little too close to home.
Have you flown since the accident? Hopefully you just need one flight to get your "wings" again.
Do you ever fly to South Africa, I'm flying Delta to the US in a months time, and it would be so cool to meet you. I do also have a few Northwest flights in the US, so maybe...
I wish you the best of luck on overcoming your fear.
