While flying in general is much safer than driving a car in California, there is still the issue that crashes of aircraft are usually much more severe than car crashes. A minor fender bender is common with vehicles, but there is no such thing with an air craft. If something goes wrong on the road, you can pull over. If something goes wrong in the air, you may not get the chance to get back to the ground. This is why aircraft maintenance is taken so seriously. That is even more true when it comes to the military and helicopters. A recent bolt issue with Boeing's AH-64 Apache helicopter has led to a critical safety issue, according to Business Insider.
