Quoting Canopus56 <canopus56@yahoo.com>:
How would your "acceptability meter" tilt if the catastrophic loss rate was 1-in-100, 1-in-200, 1-in-300? At what catastrophic loss rate is risk in the "gung-ho" range vs. the "it does not work" range?
It depends on what your definition of "gung-ho" is. If you have 1 catastrophic loss per 100 missions, then I would think that you would have a "it DOES work" range at a comfortable 99 percent rate. Nothing "gung-ho" about that.
