The safety culture survey conducted by Illumia of Illinois University is industry
recognized, developed by research grants from both the FAA and the
US
Air
Force. Over 190 organizations and airlines have completed the survey. Only one
management have refused to take part: US Airways, who in fact refused to sign
the non-disclosure agreement, denouncing this revealing safety mechanism as
union propaganda.

Ailerons (French for 'little wing') are a hinged flight control surface usually attached to the trailing edge of each wing of a fixed-wing aircraft. Ailerons are used in pairs to control the aircraft in roll, or movement around the aircraft's longitudinal axis, which normally results in a change in heading due to the tilting of the lift vector. Movement around this axis is called 'rolling' or 'banking'.

Study on Child Restraint Systems Final Report EASA 2007.C.28

[32]
Final Report EASA 2007.C.28 ‘The upper torso and the lower extremities of the
infant as well as of the adult sitting behind it break over. The infant moves
forward due to its mass inertia forces. The jack-knife movement of the adult
triggers so-called wedge expulsion forces which thrust the infant forward even
more with the loop belt driving far into the infant’s abdomen until it gets
hold at the vertebral spine. The adult’s head hits against the back of the
infant’s head, and the adult’s chest hits against the infant’s back. Due to the
high compressive load effective on the child, the adult’s legs open and the
infant hits onto the ground like a Ping-Pong ball.’
