Does it bother anyone that they say flying is the safest form of transportation yet pilot is listed as 3rd most dangerous job? I figured trucker would be up there.

I was wondering the same thing, but perhaps it lumps together all pilots, meaning all the cessnas, choppers, etc., not just commercial airline pilots.

Most pilots who die on the job are flying propeller-driven planes, according to Stephen Pegula of the BLS. So the typical pilot killed in the line of duty is someone flying a crop duster, not a commercial jet.
