One maybe not. However there are not a lot of airplanes (or pilots) and so it doesn’t take too many crashes before people start noticing they can’t get airplanes to someplace at all, or if they can they have to book early because they are all full (and soon after they notice seats they have booked get canceled - they won’t know it is because the plane crashed, but they know they can’t get there)
If a plane crashes in Russia and all the media is controlled by the state would anyone actually know it happened?

I bring you: The Tupolev Tu-104.
The people who knew they were going on that flight.
But with the epidemic of people falling out of windows that’s an easy problem to solve.
