Neither beautiful nor conclusive data. With such a low amount of plane crashes over such a small time scale the number of incidents could just be random fluctuations. Since only the number of fatalities is given but not the number of incidents per year, it is impossible to tell if the difference in fatalities might just be due to varying sizes of planes.
Double the usual number in one sixth the time. That's one low p value.
It's almost all from one event.
These kind of stats are too sensitive to fluctuations to view them annually like this.
This is bad days rep.
