Ok... GA flying is not _that_ dangerous. Statistically... it's about 7 times more dangerous than driving. This is roughly the same risk as riding a motorcycle.

Now go enjoy it!

Welcome to the $100 hamburger.

Note: I've been told the danger is 80-200 hours, and then again after they get 1,000+ hours, but YMMV... (new pilots being "very" cautious).
