Airlines relying on Windows.

Sometimes I do feel afraid.

Dude, every bit of critical infrastructure around you is running Windows XP and McAfee ePO. The shit hidden in segregated control networks would make a security researcher from 2009 cringe.

I just did a fresh install of Windows 7 this week.

Whoa! Slow down! Does the plant manager know you're on the bleeding edge?

Can confirm. I've already heard from one of my team's members from 2005.

Where I live infrastructure is actually a bit more modern, but I have seen Windows XP, 2003, 2008 very recently too.
