Porterhouse, I think you read my post too fast.
I am quoting hulls losses per million departures, which is the common standard used by people involved in safety. Never heard of percentage of hull losses per aircraft manufactured.
These are the figures commonly used :
Hull loss with fatalities (*) per million departures .
For same generation aircraft :
B727 : 0,72
DC9 0,78
T154M :0,80
B737/200 : 0,89
DC10 : 1,31
MD11:2.10
FK28 :2.35
if you want to go to the previous generation :
DC8 : 4.0
B707/720 :4,27

(*) without fatalities the rate varies but proportionally. Of course older types ( like for instance B747-100 and 200 ) get today bad stats as they do not get repaired because of they low residual value. The same apply I guess for Tu154s today. Therefore the total hull loss is not really useful for safety , especially for older types.
