Re: Airline safety: 2017 was safest year in history for passengers around world

Posted by AlM on Mon Jan 1 13:01:38 2018, in response to Airline safety: 2017 was safest year in history for passengers around world, posted by DANd124 on Mon Jan 1 12:28:47 2018.

The chances of a plane being involved in a fatal accident is now one in 16 million, according to the lead researcher, Adrian Young.

Presumably that means any given flight.

Whereas your chance of being involved in a fatal car crash are somewhere around 1 in 100 million for every single mile you travel.

So a plane flight is about as dangerous as a 6-mile drive.
