Effing Daley.

I really think something bad happened to him or someone in his family in an airplane in the past. His fear of aviation (small aircraft in particular) is rampant, and his decisions about aviation are emotionally driven and illogical. He refuses to listen to any dissention to his opinion, and, as was evidenced by Meigs, he'll go to any lengths to pander to his fears.

I really would be curious to know what has driven his fear. What happened that has made him so afraid of airplanes.
