So if I am reading this chart correctly, there is just as much chance of dying from an Asteroid/Comet Impact as there is of dying in a Passenger Aircraft Crash.

According to the NTSB (report here), there were in 2006 (latest figures available) 50 fatalities recorded for US air carriers.

Where does one look for numbers on asteroid / comet impact fatalities?

The horizon. When you see the tongue of flame, start counting backwards from 1000. ;’)
