G SXTY,

I would roughly share your flying experience (or near crashing experience) but in about 20 years around flying I have witnessed three significant aircraft accidents, one fatal. (I have witnessed several more in air displays so I don't count those)

In 50 years motoring I have only witnessed one accident actually happen.

Perhaps you are a much safer pilot than you are a cyclist?
