I have a real issue with the way this quite welcome information is presented here and there. "No commercial jet crash with fatalities"... huh? why jet only? since when are turboprops no longer an integral part of commercial aviation? "no crash with fatalities of an aircraft of more than X seats"... yeah, sure, put the lower limit just where it fits conveniently.

Isn't it enough to say that the body count of this commercial aviation's year is the lowest in a long time? and just enjoy it as it is? why the need to twist statistics like this to make catchy titles?
