David, the 337 should be one of the safest planes out there, but the experience with it has been different. Pilots don't take it seriously enough. One thing I have learned is the thing that is the biggest contributor to safety is regular recurrent training. The Cirrus had a really awful record, then they got serious about owner training and it improved. Same with the MU2, and not only required initial raining, but annual recurrent training as well. If twin Cessna owners, including 337 owners did serious annual recurrent training I am betting their accident rate would decline as well. Everyone should want to do so, in the MU2 it is a requirement. So if you want to be an MU2 pilot, it is part of the commitment. It should be part of the commitment for all planes in my opinion. Insurance companies are requiring it more and more as time goes on, and for good reason.
