A disturbing statistic

True enough. However, my observation is that pilots who limit

isn't useful under those restrictions), so that doesn't help.

Depends whether the self-imposed limit is imposed going into the game or
much later on after the cat has shed several lives. ;-)

True enough. My point is that you don't get to be an experienced and
capable pilot without taking some significant risks somewhere along the
line.
