I looked at accidents before I posted my comment.


In which aircraft? The 182, the 172, or the 206?


In 1998 (because the ntsb's search defaults to 1/1/98 as the start)
there were 20 206 accidents, 8 fatal (one killing 7!), which is 40%.
That same year there were 69 182 accidents, 16 fatal, or 23%. Anyone
know the relative fleet sizes of the 182 vs 206? I'm betting a lot
more than 3.5x more 182s.
