Flail away at me instead of on the controls......
Actually, the Concorde has the worst accident fatality rate of any commercial aircraft. It only takes one when the airframe numbers are small. A quick review of MD accidents shows that almost all of them are gross pilot error, not a reflection of the aircraft, but small numbers of airframes operating in a difficult environment.
