I wonder if this is just sampling bias or if there is some deeper systemic problem happening here. Have there always been this many air traffic accidents in the US or are we just seeing more reports recently?

the deeper systemic problem of having aircraft. the hittite empire had a perfect track record. so did the god damned romans. in fact, there were very very few crashes like this before 1903
