The way I see it, the trend is in the wrong direction. I would not surprise me to lose an airliner in a weather-related crash in the next five years. Hope I am wrong!

Do you have any actual evidence of this? Say the number of annual turbulence incidents 10 years ago versus last 12 months? Making projections based on these three incidents without any comparison data and exhaustive check of the situation is lacking analysis rigor.
