flight-risk

What the Wright Brothers and other early-aviation pioneers had to face every time they took to the skies in their primitive flying-machine inventions.

When airplanes were first being tried out at carnivals and trade-shows, many people were afraid to ride in them due to a perceived (and often-all-too-true!) "flight-risk". So a standard "grim grins" statement that these distrustful folks would make in retort/reply to an offer to climb aboard one of those airborne coffins was, "Yeah, sure --- I'll fly... if I can keep one FOOT ON THE GROUND!"

Flight Risk

For a person that isn't reliable, or trustworthy enough.

You cannot coexist with a person like this, cause simply he/she will make you regret it cause he/she sounds like ticking time bomb of unfortunate events.

e.x.

Person A:
I need some serious leisure time. It feels like I'm working non stop. You wanna go somewhere with me this summer?
Person B: You can't keep a dollar in your wallet and you want to go vacations with me? Jesus, what a flight risk!

Flight risk

When you're playing the childhood game of Airplane and the person in the air is getting railed so hard by the third party that they fall over and yell "bombs away!!"

Damn, John. You need to start doing more leg lifts. You let Amanda fall into the flight risk because I was nailing her so hard. She hit her face on the ground.
