Denti...your numbers are incorrect, all I have to do is find airline crash after airline crash and find more then 49 deaths, in that ten year period.
Actually, you are right (of course, its 19 years, not 10, but basic math isn't your forte), i did use the wrong table. In that period scheduled airlines caused the death of 1966, with an average rate of 0,0174 deaths per 100.000 hours, vs. 0,775 deaths per 100.000 hours in CFR 135 operation. Or to say it differently, flying GA you have 43,39 times higher chance to die than flying scheduled airline services. Airline statistic shows data per 100.000 take offs or miles as well, sadly that data is not available for GA.
The trend in both types of operation is very nice indeed as fatalities become less common in the last few years.
About the TCAS thing, i dont know how much training others get, but it is a normal piece of training every six months in our simulator sessions, and of course EGPWS has priority over TCAS.
