Clear some things up for me

and 4% of what? Infantry or everyone that is on the ground? I bet if you looked at only combat arms since WWII, they percent is probably higher than 4%. I think the best way to sum up flying is that it is safe, but extremely unforgiving.

I heard somewhere (read CRM brief) that 84% of all class A mishaps are related to a breakdown in the crew (not counting combat action of course). That still leaves about 16% that aren't the result of a crew mistake...

Flying is risky, made safer by experience and knowledge but will never be completely safe...
