2. Listen to the safety briefing. I had the chance to interview Capt. Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, for the 15th anniversary of his miraculous landing on the Hudson River, and he said that he ...
ARP4761, Guidelines for Conducting the Safety Assessment Process on Civil Aircraft, Systems, and Equipment describes recommended processes for assessing safety for new aircraft and equipment design as well as significant changes to existing designs for compliance with the safety requirements of FAR 25.1309 and FAR 23.1309.

The Functional Safety process is focused on identifying functional failure conditions leading to hazards. Functional Hazard Analyses / Assessments are central to determining hazards. FHA is performed early in aircraft design, first as an Aircraft Functional Hazard Analysis (AFHA) and then as a System Functional Hazard Analysis (SFHA).

A pre-flight safety briefing (also known as a pre-flight demonstration, in-flight safety briefing, in-flight safety demonstration, safety instructions, or simply the safety video) is a detailed explanation given before take-off to airline passengers about the safety features of the aircraft they are aboard.
A remove before flight ribbon on Concorde landing gear A remove before flight keychain. Remove before flight is a safety warning often seen on removable aircraft and spacecraft components, typically in the form of a red ribbon, to indicate that a device, such as a protective cover or a pin to prevent the movement of mechanical parts, is only used when the aircraft is on the ground (parked or ...
There are two generic types of aircraft structure, safe life and fail safe. The former is one that has low residual strength if a primary load-bearing member should fail, whereas the latter has alternative load paths so that if a primary load-bearing member cracks, residual strength remains because the loads can be assumed by adjacent members.
