Do you trust your airline pilots?

It's not the pilots I have distrust for. The way I look at it is they're gone too if the plane goes down so I imagine they want that thing to stay up in the air as much as I do. So I trust the pilots completely when I'm on a plane.
It's the airline companies themselves I have my doubts about. I'm always worried as to whether they're cutting back on maintenance to save costs, or if they're trying to force pilots of overwork the plane to meet hectic schedules, or if they're demanding the bare minimum fuel be put into planes because of gas prices. With them falling under the large corporation category I always wonder what common sense safety procedures they're cutting to save money. And with many airlines charging to check baggage it's only hurting my concerns because it proves they really are that greedy.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
