Why the need for such nastiness in a mature discussion?

Equating commercial aircraft with military FJ is rather like comparing domestic vehicles with drag racers.

How about some other FJ accident rates right up to the present day?

F-16 Aircraft Database F-16 Mishaps & Accident Reports

Yet another U.S. F/A-18 has just crashed in Japan. It’s the 9th Legacy Hornet lost in 6 months and the crash rate is alarming.

Despite its complexity, the much-maligned F-35 has an enviable safety record compared to any of its predecessors. That's all I'm saying.
