I doubt that the plane is intrinsically unsafe, but the notion of a
parachute speaks volumes on the design and sales goals.

Designed to encourage carelessness? Are you an aircraft designer now?
What exact features are you referring to?


The parachute? Every manned spacecraft (with the exception of the
Orbiter) that has flown to date has a parachute incorporated into the
design, and a successful mission depends on its deployment. How does the
notion of a parachute automatically encourage carelessness?

Please base your answer on your actual flight experience in actual
aircraft, if possibile.
