Kobe Bryant Crash: Risk By The Numbers - AVweb

We need not draw any line.

For most people (including the deceased in the Kobe Bryant event), flying IS about transportation.
That transportation may be inconvenient, annoying, expensive, and frustrating - or not. But what it is supposed to be is SAFE.

We also have food-safety practices. Gym equipment that doesn’t maim us. Hiking trails that are not three feet from the edge of a cliff.

Being careful, and enjoying life, are not mutually exclusive.

In aviation, failing to be careful - as in continuing VFR into IMC - often instantaneously terminates one’s enjoyment of life. And OTHERS’ enjoyment of life.

Machines don’t break rules. They don’t get clever. God save us all from clever pilots.
