Oh look, the guy who likes to enshitify people's timelines on mastodon.
He always strikes me as the kind of person that confuses his moderately deep knowledge of a limited topic set with the type of thinking that makes him an over-confident expert on a much larger variety of topics. Like when economists start making declarations about climate change science.
That's common on people celebrated on a very specific field and why most Cessna accident victims are doctors and lawyers.
Mmm. Maybe. I think it might be because doctors and lawyers can more-readily afford their own plane. It's not a cheap hobby.
...also because they're the highest earning tier of the upper middle class, and Cessna's are an extremely common manufacture with a lot of relatively low cost options.
Most of their customers are probably upper middle class types, very small regional airlines, and people who run charter businesses.
I'd assume that between the professional pilots, and the hobbyists, you'll find the former has lower crash rates.
It'd be more surprising if their was a lot of garbage men, or teachers, who crash Cessna's, or any plane.
