    Still - a very odd choice of graph. Don’t really account for the market share - and it looks like the two things being compared are stacked?

    Not saying the conclusion is wrong. But an odd choice.

      Not a great viz and also not a clear conclusion. Boeing is the top in North American sales and we are looking at incidents in the US and international waters. So we’re comparing apples and oranges here. And, as you suggest, there’s really no specifics on how many planes are being flown. Even revenue, which isn’t really accounted for, is a bad metric. Are Boeing planes more expensive (eg do they sell more large planes?), do they fly more miles, etc.
