Bell - Plant 6: 0.3 TCR = 10% of Helicopters manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Bell - Plant 6 safety composite

Bell - Plant 6 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 92% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
