Default Crashing on takeoff... how odd

So explain how more crashes happen on landing than takeoff?


Perhaps because a crash on landing is often preceded by some inflight
failure or mishap. Every inflight failure is followed by a landing of some
kind but a pre-takeoff failure is often followed by a cancelled takeoff.
