It's not that simple, FIZ. Lots of other factors - delved into them further in the 'conversation'.

Note that, a priori, ALL THREE of the fatal boeing incidents were on FOREIGN SOIL, BY FOREIGN CARRIERS, and under FOREIGN AVIATION CONTROL. Airbus specifically avoids those countries.

Good luck on finding an Airbus to ferry you around in the US. And I sure as heck ain't gonna fly on the 'other suppliers' of aircraft offerings.

MT: Thank you for this detailed analysis.

Even when normalized for fleet size and flight frequency, Boeing’s fatal crash rate(0.31/million flights) is higher than Airbus’s (0.20/million flights).

So, Boeing's fatality rate from crashes is 50% higher. Nice to know I have not been totally off base in starting to get concerned. Hopefully, Boeing will redeem itself vs. Airbus from now on.
