It's a survival rate chart, full article here: <a href="http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/aviation/safety/4219452" rel="nofollow">http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/aviation/safety/4...</a> Based on 20 plane crashes in the United States.

It seems silly to be worried about this sort of thing given to low likelihood of a crash in the first place. Most measures of flight risk are in "flight hours", so it's hard to make a direct single-flight measure. But most of the sources I was able to find quickly ranged from about 1/1MM to 1/10MM, largely depending on the airlines and countries out of which they are operating. I'll use 1/5MM for my purposes (if anyone has a better idea, pipe in).<p>So, if one were to look at the survival rates in the chart as "per flight" versus "per crash", it would be.<p>First Class: 49% * (1/5MM) = .0000098%<p>Ahead of Wing: 56% * (1/5MM) = .0000112%<p>Over Wing: 56% * (1/5MM) = .0000112%<p>Rear: 69% * (1/5MM) = .0000138%<p>[edit: cleaned up for readability]
