But nowadays I am usually on the aircraft that crashes. Usually there is first a lot of detail about the interior and the seating arrangements - which are invariably totally bizarre (but I still manage to obsess about which are the best seats!).
Most of my crash dreams these days involve very low flying, trying to avoid various topological features - as has been mentioned by several people. Strange that this is so common seeing as it isn't something that ever happens in commercial flights!

And once from LAS to SEA we were just way, way, too low over the mountains north of LAS...we knew something was wrong. They were RIGHT below us (this was not just on takeoff but for the entire time). Never asked, didn't want to know, we obviously made it safely.

In my dreams, I'm always a witness/participant. I am on the ground, watching an airplane crash - I am always in its path - in its crash path. Sometimes I am able to get out of its path in time and other times I wake up sweating. It is horrible. And frequent. I hate it. Huge planes - not the 50 seater barbie jets. Always a jumbo. I would give anything to make these go away!

Once I dreamt that I was running through the terminal in an attempt to get to the gate on time, only to discover that I had no clothes on aside from underwear. So there were two options: return home to get some clothes, and hence miss the flight. Or run to the gate to catch the flight in my underwear and just re-stock on the clothes at the other end...
