I'm not a big fan in flying in small sized aircraft since it seems that historically, many more accidents occur. Likely, because these pilots have a lot less experience than the normal pilots we tend to think of.
It is not always about the unexperienced pilots. There are always some kind of unexpected accidents arising, such as the whether, mechanical issues, or others etc. But the airplane is still our main way for travelling.This, more people can use only the airplane from move from a country to another one (example for the holidays). However I don't think the car is more secure than airplane, also if you drive in a secure way there is always the possibility of an incident (due the fault of others).
That, actually a lot of people dies everyday in car accidents, far far far more people than those who dies in airplane crashes.
