Yes many Docs have died in crashes. Many think that their success in the Medical Profession is a reason that they, the docs, feel confident in other ventures that require good judgment in tight situations. Flying requires practice and remaining current in all phases of flight, especially instrument flight.
“Flying is not inherently dangerous but, like the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of mistakes.”
