The Robinson helicopter is the dodgiest machine or should I say death trap machine ever built. It’s the helicopter that has killed more pilots than any other machine on the planet!!!
That may or may not be true. However, are Robinson's not the world's best selling helicopter?

If 80% of us drove Ford's then more accidents would involve Fords... does that alone make Ford's designs bad? (Interest to Declare: I work for a Ford owned business!).

As Disraeli said:
There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics


Queue debate about safety statistics -vs- AME opinion -vs- Robinson -vs- Bell -vs- ... ad infinitum.
