Plane crashes in Peruvian jungle
I have a feeling of deja vu. I don't know if anybody's noticed, but it's not the first plane crash this month. In the last few weeks there's been the Air France flight that messed up its landing in Toronto (no casualty - this was a lucky one), the Helios flight that crashed near Athens (121 killed), The Tuninter flight that landed on the sea near Palerm (13 killed and 3 missing), and then the West Caribbean flight that crashed in Venezuela (160 killed). I don't want to sound panicky, and I'm not of the paranoid kind, but it amounts to quite a lot of accidents over a short period or time. I understand that this is the peak period in air traffic, but shit, it is still a lot!

I'll try not to think about it on my low-cost flight to Paris on Friday.
