That one bad incident (I assume you mean the helicoptor crash) had 67 fatalities. If you remove it, you still get 19 across 4 accidents, which is still way worse than previous years
9/11 deaths are usually not counted, but even when counted the spike is not as noticeable as you might think.
This graph shows data without 9/11, add 265 for the passengers and crew of the 4 planes. I think this graph is also the entire world and not just the USA.

This should be in the title. This makes the data more intresting.
