I've been asked several times which of these things is more dangerous.
Can anyone provide some statistics on this?

You can get any answer you want, and it will be correct, depending on
how you define "risk" and "danger" and "use" and such. Generally,
flying an airplane and riding a motorcycle have some different purposes
and some similar ones. That's the key. Let's say (for example) that
you do both for pure entertainment, and the benefit is x hours of joy.
Then you are interested in risk of {whatever} per hour. But if you do
both purely for transportation, then the benefit is "getting there".
The risk is per mile (since "there" doesn't move), but for flying, you
need to add the risk of {whatever} during your trip to the airport.

There are other reasons to engage in activities, and the key to getting
the right answer is to ask the right question - to actually identify the
issue in question. That is often harder than finding the answer.
