Look around even on this web site there are lots of professional pilots who share the same views as I. I arrived at my opinions after more than two decades of studying aviation.
In regards to your question about auto safety I do not understand what you are getting at. Cars are safer due to advancements in technology.

Your right, cars are safer due to advancements in technology. So then how come the amount of motorists killed in fatal car crashes every year continues to tick upwards and climb. By your measure, since the technology has improved driving a car should be safer.
Why does you rule apply to aviation, and not to other modes of mass transportation?
