Jeff,
 
Interesting numbers.  However, the fact that no one has had an accident who has more than 1000 hours in a Lancair may just mean there are only a very small number of people with more than 1000 hours.  I think a more interesting set of data points, but probably a difficult one to come up with, would be what percentage of pilots in your time in type ranges have had accidents?  What percentage with 0-10 hours, 11-25 hours, etc.  I think what we'd all expect is that as time in type goes up the percentage of accidents in an experience range will go down.  At least I sure hope that what we'd see.
