Please accept my apologies,

No problem.

Just be careful about drawing broad conclusions about flying from too
little information from too shallow a database and you will be a much
better airplane driver as well as technical analyst. 8-)

Years ago, while an instructor, I was also an APC, an accident
prevention counselor, and I remember a humbling conversation with an
FAA inspector who was a bit annoyed at my rapid conclusion that
someone or other had done something so foolish as to be beyond
comprehension and forgiveness.

He picked up a coffee cup from his desk and asked what I saw. I told
him he was holding a cup of coffee with a spoon in it.

He showed me the sand in the cup as he removed the fork.
