You&#x27;re misreporting that data.<p>From the same table the overall risk of death (Fatality Rate) is the same for both forms of flying:<p><pre><code>   Fatality Rate (Commercial Aviation): 1.9

   Fatality Rate (General Aviation): 1.91
</code></pre>
The reason the &quot;Fatal Accident Rate&quot; is so different is because when a jetliner crashes, dozens or hundreds of people die.  So a single accident is very deadly.
