AnFI, I've tried to stay out of the circular arguments that ensue from your assertions, but I'd suggest that statistical analysis is one area that you need to brush up. Flat base stats without background are meaningless, since the exposure of single/multi engine types to the operational areas is a main feature which is ignored by you yet would significantly change the data that you are (so far) presenting.

Something like the year-to-date road fatalities so loved by many roads and policing authorities which completely ignore VKT, annual growth numbers, age groupings, 5 year trends, 12 month comparisons etc. You really are making a bit of a clot of yourself by creating inaccurate data references which mean absolutely nothing
