I thought this would come out first but it's been 30 some years.
[ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHK9su11mEA[/ame] At least we kinda got this one in the guise of Lexus SC400 / Toyota Soarer and too bad Nissan went bankrupted. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpzBga36rYM[/ame] |

https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-cul...-the-best-one/ It doesn't even have to drone. If you know the car is going to sit exactly at 6700 RPM for most of it's life, you can design the intake and exhaust to be quiet at that speed only. You can cut out design compromises for tractability at a range of rpm and instead focus on only what matters.

My dad would have pulled the plugs, gave them a good wire brushing, rubbed some brake fluid on them, shoved them back in and tightened any viable bolt down as hard as he could regardless of torque. He would then tell my mom that he was getting it inspected, pocket the money for beer, forge an inspection certificate and fly away happy. The problem is that he would probably have never had an engine issue.

I think the perception comes from every plane crash being reported on every news outlet regardless of its distance from you. If they showed just a scrolling list of auto accident (not fatal, but same coverage aviation gets) no one would drive. In the end, small general aviation aircraft (those owned by private citizens) have a death rate that is just below or about the same as auto accidents when you look at it at some ratio. It's a little difficult to match perfectly because auto accidents are measured in per miles driven, and aircraft accidents are measured in hours flown but they match up relatively well from the statistics I've seen. Also, like auto deaths, most aircraft fatalities are "pilot error" not mechanical failures.
