	Aviation Safety (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
		The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) is Australia's prime agency for the independent investigation of civil aviation accidents, incidents and safety deficiencies.
		For example, the investigation into aviation fuel contamination affecting thousands of smaller aircraft at the end of 1999, could have led to a serious accident and highlighted a range of safety deficiencies in global aviation fuel standards and refining.
		The majority of air safety occurrences are the result of a complex interaction of many factors that mayneed to be addressed for the purposes of accident prevention.

		In 1967, a unique safety device that allows the pilot to land a small aircraft's passenger compartment as a last resort was successfully demonstrated under FAA observation at the naval air station in Lakehurst, New Jersey.
		The incorporation of safety devices that give the pilot additional options during the last seconds of an attempt to minimize fatality is the focus of the subject technology.
		Aviation Safety Resources owns the patent to this technology, with an FAA directive allowing the owners to use this technology in U.S. airspace, and plans to bring it to today's market.

		Other requirements address the safety equipment an airline must have on board each of its aircraft, the number of flight attendants that must be on each flight (this varies by aircraft type), rest requirements for flight crews, the content of pre-flight safety announcements, and de-icing and security procedures, to name just a few.
		The FAA calls its program "Safer Skies." It is supported by the Commercial Aviation Safety Team, a government-industry partnership that brings together airlines, engine and airframe manufacturers, pilots, controllers, and representatives from the FAA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the Department of Defense to work on enhancing safety.
		Other organizations active in safety are the privately supported Flight Safety Foundation, the International Federation of Air Line Pilots' Association, the JAA and the International Civil Aviation Organization, which is affiliated with the United Nations.

	Air safety - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Air safety is a broad term encompassing the theory, investigation and categorisation of flight failures, and the prevention of such failures through appropriate regulation, as well as through education and training.
		Of particular significance was the Air Commerce Act 1926, which required pilots and aircraft to be examined and licensed, for accidents to be properly investigated, and for the establishment of safety rules and navigation aids, under the Aeronautics Branch of the Department of Commerce.
		Bird strike is an aviation term for a collision between a bird and an aircraft.

		To place the safety performance of the business aviation community in full context, it is important to understand that, historically, corporate/executive and business aircraft operators have compiled the best safety statistics of any segment of general aviation.
		Through such safety initiatives, corporate/executive aircraft, flown by two-person professional pilots or crews, have compiled in recent years a safety record that is comparable to that of FAR Part 121 airlines.

	FOQA - Aviation Safety v. Legal Rights
		Recently, Congress enacted the Federal Aviation Reorganization Act of 1996 (49 U.S. Code Section 40123) which gives the administrator of the FAA the right to withhold "voluntary" submitted information from disclosure where it effects flight safety or security, and disclosure would inhibit the free flow of such information to the agency.
		The law, lawyers and the litigation process, may appear to be interfering with the worthy safety goals of FOQA; however, the freedoms of a democratic society can only be protected when the competing legal rights of all parties involved are protected.  Many FAA enforcement actions are necessary and not all air crash litigation is frivolous.
		Anyone with an aviation law problem should be guided by the advice of his or her lawyer, under applicable federal and state laws, after a full and confidential disclosure of all relevant facts.

		If you are looking for perfect safety, you will do well to sit on a fence and watch the birds; but if you really wish to learn, you must mount a machine and become acquainted with its tricks by actual trial.
		The high level of safety achieved in scheduled airline operations lately should not obscure the fact that most of the accidents that occurred could have been prevented.
