Comment on Anon wants to ride a zeppelin
spujb@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks agoooh i didn’t see that tab. and yep most of the accidents had something to do with being in the air and so even by my non-expert definition i am wrong. big sad that this was one of my most upvoted comments and it was factually incorrect 😭

It’s understandable. When I got into the aviation industry I was very surprised to learn how many GA accidents and fatalities occurred in a year. Unless it’s Kobe, or newsworthy for some other reason, it usually doesn’t get past the local news.

i think also the data is juuuust a bit more inaccessible? like i remember i was able to fact check the derailment in a few seconds. anyway. regards! ☕️☀️
