Surviving an Aircraft Crash with Airbag Restraints

"Inflatable restraint solutions have improved the survivability of commercial transport and civil General Aviation (GA) aircraft by mitigating impact injury and keeping the occupants conscious and able to evacuate quickly. The AmSafe® Aviation Airbag makes advanced occupant crash protection systems feasible for retrofit into existing, and spaceconstrained, cabins/cockpits. This technology has not been incorporated into military aircraft as it is challenging to configure and qualify the equipment for Department of Defense specifications. A look at the history and field performance of the AmSafe Aviation Airbag illustrates the factors to be considered and the potential benefits for military aircraft. "
