And if you go to
http://www.bls.gov/iif/oshwc/cfoi/cftb0219.pdf on
page 14 you find a breakdown:

Airling pilots, copilots, and flight engineers 26
Commercial pilots 75

Guess which sub-part includes crop dusters and fire fighters.


How do you know which subpart includes crop dusters and firefighters?

If you look further in the document, you'll see that there are 101 deaths
listed under "air transportation worker." I have a feeling that "flight
engineer" includes such people as baggage handlers.


If you have a feeling, that implies that you don't actually know.

Being a pilot and being an idiot are not mutually exclusive.


No ****.

Wow, you really know how to wind me up don't you, fjukkktard?

I'm so angry right now I may go out and make another cup of tea.

He's just fishing... all part of the obsession with the number one.



Thanks for the promotion

Interesting that you elected not to include a link to the actual
findings.


The CNN article didn't provide one, as far as I could tell.


Was this right after their article on lift?
