Accidents Associated with Aerobatic Maneuvers in U.S. Aviation
Aviation, Space, and Environmental Medicine, 2009Aerobatic flights are the most significant risk factor for fatal injury and make up 50% of U.S. accidents in general aviation involving airport transport pilots.An analysis of the dangers of these maneuvers is presented using 25 yr of U.S. reported accidents.More than 80% of the 494 accidents were fatal.

[Heliogeophysical factors and aviation accidents].
Biofizika, 1998It was shown by two independent methods that there is a certain correlation between the number of aviation accidents and heliogeophysical factors. The statistical and spectral analyses of time series of heliogeomagnetic factors and the number of aviation accidents in 1989-1995 showed that, of 216 accidents, 58% are related to sudden geomagnetic storms.

Spatial disorientation in general aviation accidents.
Aviation, space, and environmental medicine, 1978Spatial disorientation (SD) was the third highest "cause" of fatal accidents in small, fixed-wing aircraft and closely related to the second highest "cause"--"continued VFR flight into adverse weather." SD was a cause or factor in 16% of all fatal accidents.
