Stats Stats Stats

Are we in danger of mis reading the stats here in the FODCOM?

BTW I have no axe to grind as a GA FI and an airline pilot.

training fixes were
less than 1% of total ‘air time’
75% of all calls
were erroneous or inadvertent calls by commercial pilots.

From neither statement can we deduce how much airtime is taken up by these erroneous calls nor what percentage of calls were training fixes.

The FODCOM is probably trying to make a valid point but I would not have written it that way.
