    Excellent episode Dan and Christy. Mike seems like a good fit to AOPA, and I wish him success leading the Air Safety Institute. It’s channels like yours that continue to promote safe practices and good judgment that will help bring the accident rate down. We as a community need to share this content with everyone we can to spread awareness. Keep up the excellent work. Safe skies my friends 🇺🇸🛩️

    I looked at the skies in Spain. I saw one general aviation aircraft over a period of one day. No bad weather that day.

    I dont believe crashes are increasing, But is is just an appearance of more, with everyone having a camera of some sort, they are being published more.

    Richard McSpadden flew with the Thunderbirds. My favorite McSpadden episode was when you asked him about the Blue Angels. His response talked about what a great team they were and how they worked so hard to become the “Second Best Acrobatic” behind the Thunderbirds 😊👨‍✈️

    Dan, I appreciate all your hard work looking at GA safety and trends, especially your recent analysis on comparing flying vs driving. I suspect flying GA will never be safer than driving. However, one's fate while flying is much more up to the pilot vs driving where there is a significant risk due to the actions of other drivers. Since you have already been into the data, do you think it would significantly change the GA risk profile if the glaringly obvious mistakes were excluded? Perhaps exclude flight into known bad weather, fuel exhaustion, impaired pilots, unlicensed pilots, obvious ignorance of weight and balance or other POH stipulations, and unapproved aircraft modifications, just to suggest a few.
    Three was an article several years ago in the New Yorker titled SUV's: Big and Bad, looking at the perception of safety in a larger vehicle. Only in rare circumstances was that the case as SUV's were found to be less maneuverable and prone to roll when compared to passenger cars. However a survey of SUV buyers found that some felt more armor around them was safer, 'just in case' of collision with a train or semi-trailer, for example, neither of with would end favorably for the SUV. I mention this article as there is a perception in the non-flying public that GA 'little planes' just drop out of the sky for unpredictable reasons. Everyone has heard the 'you'll never get me up in one of those things' comment.
    By excluding GA crashes due to 'obvious' modifiable factors we would be left with those crashes resulting from true unpredictable events. Thoughts? Comments?

      So like look at the numbers if you pulled pilot stupidity? Would drop to micro levels.

    This is the fool who flew in to Oshkosh this year like he owned the airspace! The AOPA arrival I guess. Not for the rest of us.

    There is a big audience online for high-quality safety & awareness content like the AOPA's various series, because near-miss & accident analyses have a lot of important learnings for everyone... even those of us who aren't in aviation.
    The specifics might differ between industries, but the underlying factors & root causes are inevitably the same... and the brilliant thing about the aviation industry is that the risk management framework, safety systems & investigative techniques are mature processes & openly available.
    Humans learn through experience, whether it's our own or someone else's... and we all benefit from being reminded about the harsh consequences of moments of inattention, overconfidence, loss of awareness, "get-there-itis", etc. _because it happens to all of us._ So don't be surprised by view counts that far exceed the number of qualified pilots... it just shows the value of your content both within the aviation community _and_ with many of us outside of it. 👍

    I’m talking about certificated pilots when I say airplanes crash because checklists aren’t followed.
    Stay away from “creative airmanship”, and you’ll have an enjoyable, lengthy albeit boring - career.
    You want “jollies”, go to the carnival. 🤡
