As best as I recall though, I got my information from someone who
insured them and enterprises which used their services. Perhaps his
actuaries had a different source than you.

Perhaps most Alaskans are running uninsured.

How would that bear on the current question though? If the source of the
(mis)information were actuarial as Ron speculated, it could still take
account of all pilots--insurance actuaries don't just look at the data for
the insured. Moreover, if the 1-in-4 figure *didn't* count uninsured
pilots, then even *more* than 1 in 4 Alaskans would be a pilot! But the 1
in 4 figure is already exaggerated by a factor of 16.
