Flying will never be the same as it was before September 11, 2001. By now, much has been done to increase your safety. But, do loopholes still remain unplugged? Probably, and they could be exploited for evil purposes. You deserve to know how to respond in order to remain safe and unharmed where others panic and get hurt. We all want a healthy and secure aviation system. This is not a time for inaction. Righting what’s wrong - and proactively doing so way beyond temporary or cosmetic fixes only - is critical. That’s why you must know where the greatest risks are, and how to avoid or cope with them. Here's a fundamental principle concerning your safety: You either ask for what you want, or you accept what you get! QUESTION #1: Do you want reassurance that proven measures to prevent or manage in-flight violence exist and that maximum protection is available at a second’s notice should violence erupt when you, your children or other loved ones are onboard an aircraft? In all likelihood, your answer is YES. That’s why Kristen L. Skogrand embarked on the study known as “Safe Flier After September 11”. He also formed the Safe Flier Foundation, and launched SafeFlier.com. He did so after he was injured for life during one of the most serious air rage assaults in recent times. His story offers constructive lessons that can protect you in the future and empower you to take renewed charge of your own safety. Millions of people have recently heard, watched or read about Kristen's misadventure. Many also utilized his well-founded advice. What happened to him onboard a commercial flight from the U.S. to Europe has been featured on national television in the US (MSNBC) and Germany (Das Erste - PlusMinus, story entitled “Gewalt im Himmel” ("Violence in the Sky"), on BBC (Five Live Radio), and on TalkSport, the largest commercial radio station in the UK. Besides a feature interview in UK based Aviation Security International Magazine (Independence Day Rage: A Victim's Tale), several other print and online media in Europe and North America covered it, too. For more details, please go to our Press Room. Finally, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the US investigated it thoroughly. Their final report confirms the graveness of the situation Skogrand faced during this life-altering experience. QUESTION #2: Are you unwittingly a member of the 1st-line-of-defense onboard passenger aircraft, or are others available to intervene in order to protect you in case of a crisis in the air? The answers to this question may surprise you. Kristen researched it thoroughly for his evolving research project. The presentation of the study has been delayed due to his serious health condition. It is yet too early to confirm an exact release date. When it occurs, Kristen will present his findings, and those of his excellent expert network, in simple terms tailored to everyday men and women like you. As to the above question: According to many flight attendants, they actually do regard you and other passengers their primary defenders. Are you ready for that kind of responsibility? Have the airlines and public agencies done their part in preparing you for it? ACTIONS YOU CAN TAKE TODAY FOR IMMEDIATE SAFETY BENEFITS
