The CNN article has more info on the study, for those without access to download it:

Attendants have higher risk than pilots. This kind of makes sense, as my understanding is they don't have pilots fly too often. Meanwhile, attendants are flying all the time.
Don't forget your lead body armor when going on long flight trips (which they can't charge you extra for).
