I think what he really meant was that there's no reason (when all is said
and done) a private pilot can't end up with the same accident record as an
airline captain.

If your husband is in the habit of flying low over the ground, showing

off
and taking unnecessary risks, then flying is not very safe at all. If he
flies "by the book," carefully weighing the risks created by weather,
terrain, the condition of the airplane, and his own condition at the

time,
then he is probably as safe as any airline captain.


This is ridiculous. There is no area of GA flying that is even remotely
comparable to airline flying in terms of safety.
