Default Safety: Planes vs Bikes

Motorcycling is safer than spelunking or sky diving, from what I remember
reading. The risks between flying and riding a motorcyle I'd imagine are
relatively equal. Per trip a airline airplane ride is much more dangerous
than riding a car but safer than a motorcycle. I'd imagine a private plane
is somewhat less safe, on average. They are less forgiving of mistakes.
