I regularly fly 737 Classics as a passenger and I have no problems with them, in fact I feel safer in it than with an Airbus 320 and Sukhoi Superjet 100.

 

Haha, well more power to you. I lived on an airforce base in Africa as a kid, used to jump seat on Jurassics all over the place (At the time the A300 was cutting edge).  In all fairness the 737 Jurassic was the least of my worries when flying in Africa.  It was the first commercial aircraft my old man flew and he loved it.

 

Don't really want to get into a debate, however  When a particular aircraft is known to  pose a risk of applying FULL rudder all by itself and killing everyone in the process... I'll find other modes of transport....

What Aircraft is that?  I remember an incident in which a pilot pushed the A300 beyond load limits on the Vertical stab using the rudder.

Google '737 rudder hardover'

 

You are thinking of separate incident, American airlines A300 Jamaica bay. The F/O hit wake turbulence from a Jap 744, unfortunately due to poor training he believed he could swing the rudder pedals back and forth like an exercise machine.  Everyone died as a result.  

 

I am talking about 737 rudders going full left/right in flight all by itself.

 

Am not a fan of posting random internet links, however this should get you started -
