Yes and just remind me how often does that happen? What is the probability of a person dying when an aircraft falls on their head vs the probability of them dying in a road accident? Many, many orders of magnitude. Of course I'm sure the hysterical risk averse contingent will wail and scream at one such occurrence (whilst reading their Daily Mail).

And let's remember that quite a few allegedly competent professional pilots manage to crash into people on the ground. Hawker Hunter anyone? Clutha bar?
