Unless these stats include details on both type of flying and type of pilot coupled with the numbers of aircraft in the fleet, these reports are a mathematical “fools errand”. For helicopters, both the most inexpensive helicopter and the one used in the most dangerous mission will appear at top of accident lists (so R22 and MD500), however this doesn’t conclude that either of these are inherently dangerous aircraft nor less safe than competitor aircraft.
