Airplane crashes

I mistakenly thought that 90% of all crashes were pilot error. It turns out that only about 78% of them are pilot error. The rest are mechanical failure or weather or jihadists.

I was suppose to fly the plane that crashed in Lexington last year if it made it to Atlanta.

Also, any jet airplane can lose an engine on the runway, continue to takeoff and fly normally.

You realize that close to 0% of commercial crashes are pilot error, right?
