So far this week I’ve posted about haunted houses and haunted cars. Now, about all of the haunted airliners out there…

For example, how about the ghosts of Eastern Airlines flight 401 that crashed back in 1972.

Then there are these chats among air crew for air carriers about different aircraft hauntings discussing differing aircraft.

Then there are the ghosts of American Airlines Flight 191 (1979):

And, just so that you know Americans aren’t the only country with “haunted” airliners, this discussion thread comes from British air crew chats.

And just to make sure that you don’t feel safe anywhere when you fly commercial airlines, go to this web site about haunted aircraft, airports and museums.
