I don't agree with you statement about aircraft crashes - there have been an incredible number of high profile, simple pilot screw-up s(not surprising when you talk to the jump pilots with hardly any training, little hours, and little practive in engine out procedures.) As an ex airline pilot, I often, out of curiosity spoke with jump pilots and it was startling to see how little experience some of them had who were turned loose flying a King Air. With endless, boring forays to jump altitude and back, a sudden surprise like an engine failure on takeoff too frequently spelled trouble.
