It seems unusual to have that many commercial flight crashes. With 5 so far this year we are on track for 24 by year's end, which would be a statistically significant deviation from the last 6 years. The AA/Blackhawk collision was the first major commercial loss of life since 2011.
Incidentally 2024's number of 18 crashes is also statistically significant.
First major commercial loss of life in the US since 2011, you mean. There have been crashes by other countries. Pretty sure a few asian airlines have gone down since, I think a passenger plane was shot down over Ukraine too.
