In 1998 (because the ntsb's search defaults to 1/1/98 as the start) there were 20 206 accidents, 8 fatal (one killing 7!), which is 40%. That same year there were 69 182 accidents, 16 fatal, or 23%. Anyone know the relative fleet sizes of the 182 vs 206? I'm betting a lot more than 3.5x more 182s. -- Ben Jackson http://www.ben.com/ |
