I did? Here's what I wrote in post #35:
"We'll not be able to rid the world of any and all danger, but the danger of small planes, sometimes with haphazard maintenance histories, falling on people and their homes unexpectedly is one danger that strikes me as one that can be done away with."
I suspect that most of the time, the vast majority of cases, maintenance is done well. There's a big investment there. Not always the case though. Hence the word "sometimes." Oh well, nothing will be perfect in life but with most auto breakdowns, you cruise to the side of the road.
And then you have people in shoddily built planes, like John Denver.
