Sample tests has syntax error.
Your sample test is missing the end paren and semicolon!
Which means they don't run.
That would be an
Issuethen.Air transport crash probability is not even close on the order of 0.01. It's more like 0.0000001 per journey (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviation_safety#Comparison_to_other_modes_of_travel), and that still leaves the (much) longer average distance traveled per journey compared to other modes of travel unaccounted for.
I understand you needed something with a probability. But you could have tried a little harder to approximate your probabilities to within oh, a couple of orders of magnitude or so. If that means you have to make something other than air travel look dangerous, well, that's just realistic, isn't it?
Not an issue.
If you can decide it isn't, why can't I decide it is?
