So how then would a "transportation oriented" measure, such as fatalities per passenger kilometer, actually tell us anything useful?
The analysis I refered to does recognise that a lot of GA flights don't actually go anywhere. Stats are always going to be a compromise but I think the page that Chili Monster originally posted made a decent stab at comparing driving and flying.
