cool, but that doesn't really address my complain about pilots. i don't trust these numbers.
It is on the same website. Not always the same year.
Working pilots: https://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/cwc/flying-too-high-workers-fatalities-in-the-aeronautics-field.pdf
80.5 per 100k/ year
Police: https://www.bls.gov/iif/factsheets/fatal-occupational-injuries-police-2018.htm
13.7 per 100k/year
No matter what year you find stats for, pilots outweigh police for death risk. Prove me wrong.
