Statistics do my head in, but where are we now? This, presumably, was the 1 in 10 ^x 'unlikley' event. What now?
Incidents of this magnitude do occur at 1 in 10 ^7, while worst outcomes are 1 in 10 ^8. Considering all the other stuff that goes bang in the night, this really was a demonstration of the airworthiness of the aircraft and its pilots.
Statistics that I am quite happy to fly in
(although I 'm willing to work to make them even better)
