I had more faith in that before they deregulated the airlines.

I have a rational expectation, formed from my observations and careful thought of all factors relating to the act of flying commercially. I also have made an informed decision based upon previous data and knowledge of most factors involved, as well as comparing the relative risks.

To call it 'faith' is a belittlement of anothers mind, carefully and usually unconsciously collating and tabulating data to make decisions, augmented best with reason.
