The is the first fatality for the company operating the jet, since 1970. They have over 800 aircraft and operate at hundreds of thousands of flight hours per year.
The crash rate for people flying their own jet by themselves is extremely high. For those who let a professional fly, the crash rate is very low.

But still much higher on the private plane side than the commercial side, even if its a hired pilot.

Josh was just an awesome guy. He always had an energetic and magnetic personality. I'll miss you Josh, see you on the other side.

Is it just some kind of confirmation bias or something, or are there actually a lot of plane crashes in the past few weeks.
