The point of this thread is ...
It seems to me that we can all agree that having all on board, particularly SLF, fully aware of a number of facts on safety issues could help save lives.
However, recent incidents: US Air in the Hudson, Air France into a ravine at Toronto, British Airways on ice at Heathrow - where no-one died does call into question the basic premis behind this theory.
I think this whole process / procedure needs a re-think. What isn't working and what is? How can things be improved?
I've got some ideas (such as posting safety videos for aeroplanes you will be taking, with a link from your e-ticket. Safety 'classes' run by airlines (some people would pay for this! etc.)) but no real answers.
In my view what is being done doesn't accomplish the goal.
