I think there are a lot of similarities, one underlying one being that whether you are flying or diving, you have to exit that environment safely if you are going to survive . . .

I used to read the NTSB reporter, and there are a lot of commonalities between flying and diving accidents, too. Complacency, failing to execute checklists, ignoring "minor" problems, and allowing external pressures to push you into conditions you shouldn't be in all cause flying accidents, and diving accidents, too.
