They don't crash as frequently as Reno planes, or for such a pointless reason.

But it didn't happen 100 times, it only happened 47 times, so that's the number we're going to use. 1/47 is not freakish in any way, nor is it misleading. It's reality.

The deaths are the result not the cause, you can't measure the result and then use it as an argument for cause.

I'm not assuming anything, I'm just counting the dead, and the cause is very well known. It's Reno.
