Pretty striking - I'd add a title to the top and the source in the lower right. Would make it much more shareable.
Edit: And a note about 2025 only being up to February 17th. Because the graph may outlive the
next Delta flightweek.-
Sure, how does this look

I want it in green.

Think that would be good to edit the post to show that image instead

Assuming this is counting people not crashes an average of 40 jumping to 80 doesn’t appear too shocking as I would think that meant one or so more crashes than normal. Unless it’s a bunch of really small planes.
-
The striking part is that it's so much higher while we're 7 weeks into the year. The other years include all 52 weeks. Also 40 is close to the maximum for previous years on the chart, not the average, which I'd estimate around 25.
-
The number of fatal incidents is probably more informative for most conclusions. We rarely have a passenger airliner incident and this year we had one. That really moves number of deaths statistics despite not having a particularly informative different cause than other aviation accidents.

Average is 26.92 excluding 2025

great point I didn't consider that
