Maybe they get to relaxed and over confident?


It is called "complacency," but I think there is more to it than that. If
you play roulette long enough, sooner or later your number is going to
come
up.


Figure in as well, most 10,000+ hour pilots are flying professionally at
least in some way or another. As such, they're also flying much more per
year than other pilots. This dramatically increases their exposure to said
risk. I guess another way of saying it is, I'm guessing that the small
percentage of 10,000+ hour pilots that are out there account for way more
than 10% if the annual flying hours.
