The problem with the media is that they have to reiterate all the previous examples of bad incidents to try and exploit the dangers of such things.
ie. helicopter crashes, airline crashes etc...

All this does is banish what confidence the public has in our wonderful machines - but they never compare the number of flights / hours flown compared to the number of incidents - I can imagine that there are more accidents with motor vehicles on the road.

I agree - what does it have to do with anything?

I sometimes wonder if it is an anti flying conspiracy
