Disagree. For most light singles with tricycle gear, some of your
landings may just be ungraceful. With enough total hours, that
need not be the case. At least, this issue has little to do with
fatal accidents, the context of your posts. Two significant causes
of fatals are weather and fuel exhaustion, generally on long
x-country trips.
Fuel management accounts for only 7.6% of pilot-caused fatal GA accidents,
according to the 2004 Nall Report. Weather causes another 12.7%. They're far
exceeded by takeoff/climb fatalities (16.5%), descent/approach fatalities
(18.6%), and maneuvering fatalities (25.0%).
