20%? That's a very crude incorrect statistical calculation

Extract
"For the R22, the rate of reported occurrences (per 100,000 hours flown) averaged 18.2 over the five- year period 2017 to 2021. This rate is above the Bell 47G (11.5) and below each of R44 (45.7), Bell 206 (40.4) rotary aircraft." (2023)
So, using these figures... if you fly an R22 your chance of an "occurence" for every hour flown is 0.0182 % ie. (18.2 divided by 100,000) x 100
The data is also skewed by "high risk" flying, eg mustering, teaching
This has been convered many times before. Aircraft used for training PPL/Ab Initio students have a worse accident/incident rate because of the nature of flying they do.
In the right hands, and observing the aircraft/pilot/weather limits...the R22 is very safe.
Anyway, I am sure the HX50 will be err very safe, with all those private owners 'hopping' from one garden to another, with 5 pob, max fuel, and golf clubs in the back (esp if Crab is flying)
