Air travel is generally considered to be safe, however there are a number of circumstances that can occur which can cause injury or death. Airplane accidents are becoming more common. When we fly, we rely on the conduct of pilots, mechanics, and airline employees to be consistent with the standards required in their industry. Unfortunately, circumstances such as equipment failure, fires, acts of terrorism, air rage, and negligent conduct can and do occur on flights. Aviation Accident Lawyers specialize in this area.

Airline and airport security is regulated by The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The FAA has created broad security regulations and recommendations which each airport must comply with. Additionally, airports must have programs to comply with FAA regulations. Such programs include the use of airport security personnel, security training courses for airport employees and the use of metal detectors.
