Why do you fear flying now? The fact that accidents like this are rare enough to be big news should clue you in to the fact that air travel is incredibly safe. You're a lot more likely to get killed sitting at your computer right now than you are likely to get killed on a commercial aircraft.
I really have to disagree with better chances of getting killed at my computer desk than flying. The only way i could die due to me having my .38 next to me incase someone comes in and believe me i will win, someone drops a bomb on this house and I live in a 2-story so I don't believe anyone will be running their car into my house and me being affected by it if they do. The only way I will die at this computer is if an airplane decides to crash in this subdivision. Either way I could be killed in or by an airplane.

A pilot making a mistake as this one did makes my fear go up it's called attention to detail and he didn't have this.
