Default Chances Of Being In A Plane Accident/Crash?

Yea I was just wondering, does anybody know the chances/odds of being in a plance accident? Cause I just got back from a flight and we hit some bad turbulence, the plane dropped like 10 feet twice, scary stuff.

Your chances of being involved in an aircraft accident are about 1 in 11 million. On the other hand, your chances of being killed in an automobile accident are 1 in 5000. (Source)

I've been in 21 car vehicle accidents in my life. That I can rmember. Now if I knew how many times i've been in a vehicle I could proabbly work out my chances...

As for planes. I'm not scared of them considering all I do is sleep and not care about anything.

No, it's 2 out of 50. And it's the truth.

Everyone knows that 2 out of every 50 airplanes crash.

I haven't been on a plane in years. I don't plan on it anytime soon either.

Statistically, 2 of 50 IS 1 of 25. And it's nowhere near that high of a number; people most definitely wouldn't take airplanes if they knew that their odds of being dropped several thousand feet were a whopping 4%. =/

This may help with what you're looking for.

Last time I was on a plane we flew through a pretty big thunderstorm. Seeing the storm from above was really neat looking.

You heard that from Day After Tommorow, didn't you?

And that is about it, somewhere in the millions.
