And all of these not large mainstream carriers that you and I would fly on.
Every year there are crashes but most , and in 2017 , all, were military, cargo or others non standard passenger revenue flights. Rarely in first world developed countries does an airliner crash with major fatalities. Exceptions exist. AF447 being a classic example.
