Seriously, how many of these fucking things have crashed in just the last 2 or 3 years alone?!

I can’t afford to get on a jet and I’m hoping to die before dady Trump sent me to Venezuela or Iran to fight for bourgeoisie or I organize a red brigade to fight against the US imperialism while I’m onboard on a helicopter and get hit by a FPV drone eventually die in a helicopter crash

Small planes are about as dangerous as motorcycles, from what I've seen. Converting "risk per mile" to "risk per operation hour" is a bit tricky. Similar to "riding without a helmet", "flying an experimental aircraft" exponentially increases your risk exposure.
