We do indeed seem to be having a particularly bad year. It's only February of 2025 and there's been more than double the total deaths than in the past decade

Deaths don't trickle in individually... one incident causes a huge surge. Any year with a single commercial airline crash is going to be a "particularly bad year"

Not minimizing these tragedies, they are real and hopefully there are some concrete actions we can take to make crashes even more rare. But its also true that your statistical analysis is poor.

Yes but we've had 2 major accidents in/over the US and it's only February

This must be commercial only too

Is Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 missing?

As far as I know, it still is.

(Sorry, could not resist...)

Not US.

Neither is the crash discussed here so it's odd list only US fatalities.

The comment said specifically "Major" accidents within specific time frame. I don't see anything in your link contradicting them. The claim was not that there were not any accidents.

And the convenient thing about a word like "major" is, you get to define it however you want!

Ok, then let's define it. There is a world of difference between Part 121, Part 135, and Part 91 operations. Almost no one in America will ever be on a 135 or 91 flight. If we limit ourselves to 121, which is what we're actually talking about when we talk about air travel, then you've got Southwest 1380, and before that you have to go all the way back to Colgan.
