I suggest education. Read a pilot's ground school textbook like this
http://www.amazon.com/Student-Pilots-Flight-Manual-Certificate/dp/156027719X which may be available at many libraries. With a firm grasp of what makes a plane stay in the air, you can take comfort that as long as there is altitude you are safe.
Also, consider how many aircraft are in the air right this minute. As I write this, it is just over 10,000. See
