I like the 80/20 rule. I just assume that there is a 20% chance I won't be getting off any flight I take in one piece. Same for road travel, crossing the road, turning on the stove, telling the Mrs. I have last minute travel, etc. That said, the time or method of my demise does not play a factor in my decision to live and enjoy life to its fullest. So, yeah... 20%
