I don't understand what you're saying here. There are definitely pilots out
there that have flown decades without a reportable accident. Are you saying
that it isn't even remotely possible that an active private pilot can go
through their entire flying experience without an accident? Please clarify.

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.

That isn't even remotely true.

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.
