Especially as when one ten place airplane crashes with all jumpers on
board tends to skew the statistics.

Thanks - It reminds me that in my post I failed to note that the
skydiving statistics apply only to the skydive from exit to landing.
Skydiving aircraft crashes, which take an additional toll, are by
convention tallied separately. So the analysis doesn't change, if one
is comparing homebuilts to the actual skydive, but not the airlift to altitude.
