Thankfully, this is probably a design/maintenance issue with the DC-10/MD-11 that doesn’t apply to other aircraft. The A320, 787, A350, A380, and 777 aircraft have nearly spectacular safety records. Flying is still the safest method of travel by a significant margin. Planes just fail in a uniquely scary and public way, whereas busses, trains and cars kill people in mundane and unremarkable ways.
