I don't think civilian flights get blown up all the time, but it does happen.

Consistent with "all the time" for me. e.g. much more often than massive Tsunamis or electrical grid-affecting Coronal Mass Ejection events.

That's fair. It should happen 0 times, but has happened infinitely more than that.
