Apart from the spike in WW2, that graph says it all. Start with very few ac in 1918, have very few accidents. End in 2XXX with no aircraft.....cos we are broke
TBH, I can see both sides having flown ac with uber safe systems that add weight/time/pilot capacity to operate. That's where I can see the clash, and where military cannot equal civvy in terms of safety.
I just don't want to go see another report on Sky News like I did when 230 crashed. That's where your self styled intellect and the 'big picture' that you talk about goes out of the window for me Tourist....Don't get me wrong, the MAA don't float my boat either, but 14 needless deaths with little or no accountability deserves something to happen.
Doesn't it?
