above?<\/p>\n<p>(A) Since the volume of air traffic has been increasing all the time, an increase in the number of deaths due to collisions does not necessarily mean greater danger.<br \/>\n(B) The increase in collisions can be explained by statistical coincidence, hijackings, and unusual weather.<br \/>\n(C) Mortality per passenger mile is lower for air travel than for any kind of surface
