The events of 11 September 2001 changed the world, and in
particular the aviation community, forever. Since then, the
terrorist threat continues to dominate international air travel and
pose a real and present danger to airline passengers and aircrew
across the globe. In line with this, expectations of renewed
commitments to aircrew security training increased, however the
practical reality of the standard of information and effective
training often fell short. This book aims to help redress this
problem. Intended to help flight crews' deal with the new
complexities they face in the skies, it is designed to inform and
enlighten crewmembers on the issues posed by air rage and terrorist
activities, using techniques for conflict resolution, assessment of
threat, mental and physical preparation and post-incident
considerations. The culmination of work accomplished from a
lifetime of employment in aviation, security and training, the
authors use a progressive approach to explain security issues from
a flight crewmember's perspective. Using detailed studies of
current airline security practice, verified by interviews with
crewmembers worldwide, the book uncovers many of the shortcomings
of international aviation security and presents plausible and
innovative solutions to the problems crewmembers face. Having
worked with aviation industry leaders, regulatory authorities,
major airlines and flight training organizations, the authors
provide a unique blend of guidance, useful to the development of
security programs for crewmembers by airlines, corporations and air
charter companies. Government agencies commissioned with overseeing
and developing aircrew security can also use the book when seeking
a better understanding of the needs of crewmembers and airlines.
Readership includes: Airline flight crewmembers (pilots, flight
engineers and flight attendants); major universities and colleges
with aviation programs; members of organizations such as the
Airline Transport Association, International Airline Transport
Association, World Airline Transport Association, Flight Safety
Foundation, Pilot and Flight Attendant labor unions as well as
government agencies.
