Well, not quite.

For example, SR-71 accidents would be rare events, for the simple reason that there were not many
SR-71s built. However, the amount of training required to fly them was huge. And the interest in it
was equally large, both on the side of the USAF and on the side of its pilots.

Some qualification is necessary. One needs to identify a class, under a description, in which a
given event is rare. The implicit class in my example is "all aircraft flights". Arguably the goal
of the intensive training was to make accidents "rare events" also in the class of "SR-71 flights".
