in the last 7 years pinnacle only has 3 entries, jefferson city, MKE, and ashville (this is where the window caught on fire).
in the last 7 years fed ex has had 24 incidents/accidents.

so what the statistical trends show is that with 800 flights a day at pinnacle, in the last 7 years there have been 3 incidents/accidents, that is pretty good.
Probably right; FedEx has the largest route structure out of any company in the world, and flies at night a lot, all over the world into some of the most demanding enviroments there are. Along with that owns about 700 airplanes.
