Yes, that is correct. A little under $4000 for the Garmin GTX 330. Do you know of a less expensive way to get transponder operating air traffic info into the cockpit and displayed on a moving map? ... |

I think you should re-check your math. I get 12 accidents per 100,000 hrs
for automobiles using your starting figure of 235 accidents per 1-- million
miles and an average speed of 50 mph.

What Craig says is true, but it is not a complete answer.
