Notice the numbers and notes for "Business Aviation". Mostly IR'ed, but
they fly a LOT.

The problem with this comparison is that there are a lot of variables.

Indeed there are...and those variables are what sets each group apart.
Hopefully, one can grasp what those variables are and how they effect the
stats.

There's the number of hours flown, the IR, the commercial cert, possibly
an ATP, the support staff, and probably other differences of which I'm
unaware. Any one of these would, I expect, help. Which helps more? I
don't see how we can determine that via this comparison.

Yes.

Now compare GA with Business Av. - those are the two closest in terms of
equipage, etc.


Of course, the solution then is to do as many of these as possible. IR.
Commercial. Lots and lots of flying.

Very few BA types (owner flown) have Comm tickets.


Like we need an excuse, right grin?

Like we need a hole in the head! :~(
