How Safe are Airplanes from Crashing?

Typically, air travel is safe, especially when compared to other types of transportation. In fact, for every 1,000,000 miles you travel in a car, you can expect to be in about 4.5 crashes. Yet, for every 100,000 flights you take on a US Carrier, you can expect to be involved in about 1.05 accidents. Thankfully, agencies like the Federal Aviation Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics provide trustworthy data that involves airplane safety guidelines and also review airplane crash safety each year.
