There are many high time pilots who have had accidents in these things as well as many low time pilots. Unfortunately a lot of logbooks got "lost" between the accident and NTSB and the reports only reflect the rating not the hours BUT the stats show a very strong correlation to time in type. Less than 300 hours in make and model seems to be a b reak point in the accident stats.

You are correct about total time. There are many high time pilots who h= ave=20 had accidents in these things as well as many low time=20 pilots.

Less than 300 hours in make and mod= el=20 seems to be a break point in the accident stats.
