they've got IP(Iraqi police) so I guess they're considered cops but I considered them Military police sort of and they've got ICDC which is the equivalent of our National Guard.

I think the people making the list fail to distinguish between the aviation equivalent of "four-wheelers" and professionals.

Errors by professional pilots are fairly rare. Its quite common for armatures to kill themselves and their passengers in small aircraft, think JFK Jr and Jon Denver.

The list also completely ignors the military. I belive Lyods of London once classified the flight deck of a carrier as the most dangerous workplace in the world.

People have walked away from crashing a truck how many commercial airline pilots walk away from a plane crash? I'd be a nervous wreck all day thinking one small error and I could kill myself and many other people... I know I know a truck driver could kill himself/herself and other people but there is more opportunity for sh!t to hit the fan being a pilot.
