speaking of stats
Imagine an Airbus A320 crash this week? And the week after that and for every week from here on out. What would happen? There would be investigations and outrage and it would scare a lot of people away from flying. I read something similar to the paragraph above in an insurance mag recently. That's how many people die each year in the US from alcohol related accidents. I realize the comparison isn't fair but it does provide some though perspective Does anyone know how many fatalities there are related to GA? R. Hubbell |
