I shouldn't think so, given that airline refers to a commercial/civil operator.

No, it doesn't include war. Civilian airliner deaths only. It doesn't include private planes either.

I made a chart, but how do I make the years so that they don't have a comma? I typed 1999, but it made it 1,999.

«Аэрофлот» все еще в деле, но очень, очень, очень небезопасно. Их запретили в ЕС, но в основном из-за войны, понимаете?

How about instead of thinking that popular things are more Important, you learn to read numbers and look to the left.

Any data for the failed designes of the airplane (before the wright brothers made the first successful airplane flight in 1903?)
