Poll: Which Is Your Number One Accident Fear?

The risk of a mid-air is tiny compared to loss of power for any SE aircraft. Big DUH here.

Likewise, the risk of an SE total power loss, at least without warning, including fuel starvation. I’d be more concerned with any failure that leads to loss of flight control. Without power, the airplane and helicopter will glide/auto to at least a potentially survivable landing. Lose flight control continuity, take a buzzard (or another aircraft) through the windscreen, radical shift of cargo, lots of things will kill you before you hit the ground.
