Folks do things deliberately all the time that put the lives of others at risk. Drunk and drug affected driving, speeding (Tiger Woods double the speed limit), guns, crash into houses (planes and cars) causing injuries and loss of life. In the US they average 1013 persons admitted to hospital yearly as a result of aviation accidents, with a 2% in hospital fatality rate (Aviation-Related Injury Morbidity and Mortality: Data from U.S. Health Information Systems). In a short search I could only find one instance where a third party was killed by an aircraft attempting to land on a highway. Perhaps we should just pull the doona over our heads and hope it all goes away.


Those damn flying machines come down anywhere it seems.


This selfish dummy put it down on a road instead of taking the house option.
