That's a really interesting chart, but with some inconsistencies. It treats the MD-80 separate from the DC-9, but lumps all 737's into one type. It overlooks the RJ's completely (save the 146).
Of these nineteen types, the worst four aircraft have fatal accident rates between 2.0 and 12.5 per million flights. Ranks 12 - 15 have rates between 1.0 and 2.0.
And the best eleven have rates LESS THAN 1.0 per million.
And the best of the lot is the little 340.
But the big 340 & 330 are absent.
