They indicate nothing about what level of experience is really the most dangerous: the real killing zone could be at 100 hours, or 900, but we cannot tell. To take a different example, if I could show that more people die every year from falling off chairs than from high-altitude mountain climbing without oxygen, would that prove that sitting on a chair is more dangerous? > That's no reason to let those _same_ accidents repeat themselves > over and over again. I agree absolutely -- it is absolutely critical for everyone, pilots, car drivers, joggers, cyclists, etc. -- to know what the dangers are.
