Pilot experience/passenger choice

[Jabiman]

You must have at some point experienced in your lifetime,that generally a person who has done a job a short time will have a more conscientious approach to their tasks,& the long termer will have become so accustomed to these tasks,they become complacent & are more liable to make a mistake/s.

Have you had a look at this thread:
http://www.pprune.org/rumours-news/4...-incident.html

Looks at the statistics about the safety of flying.

Ok, I have at this web site:
Safety vs Driving
The conclusion of which is (GA=general aviation):

• driving: 1.32 fatal accidents and 1.47 fatalities per 100 million miles
• airlines: .05 fatal accidents and 1.57 fatalities per 100 million miles
• GA: 7.46 fatal accidents and 13.1 fatalities per 100 million miles

I trust that the regulating authorities for that service has established that my operator is qualified. That's good enough for me and should be for you.

Not sure if this was ever true but it certainly is not now. In todays world companies are run to maximise profit and to pay managers fat bonuses. Most have no aviation experience and are running a risk/profit calculation where they try to balance maximum profit with minimal risk…but sometimes they get it wrong (greed is good anyone?)
Next you are going to tell me to trust the bankers because they are all too conservative to lend too much and send governments broke having to bail them out.
