Almost 3/4s of the US-based deaths happened in the helicopter/plane collision at the end of January. That is skewing the numbers. Chances are - so long as there are no more tragic incidents like that - by the end of 2025 the proportions will be closer to normal (4/6)

How dangerous is air travel? Despite what you might think from the recent news, not very. At this year’s rate, if you got one flight every day since you were born, you’d be approaching 59 before you got in an accident. It would be 131 years before you died (5/6)

And if you're in a crash now, you're three times as likely to survive than in the late 90's. There are now about 29 deaths for every 100 accidents, compared to 88 per 100 then. 700 times more people die in road traffic accidents each year than do from air accidents (6/6)
