| | Synopsis |
| | Flight is managed risk. And it is a risk that, every year, 615 |
| | million Americans are prepared to live with. The perils associated |
| | with flying over the North Atlantic are obvious, but statistics show |
| | a person would need to be onboard an aircraft around the clock |
| | for 438 years before being involved in a fatal accident. That |
| | impressive safety record can be attributed to a reliance on |
| | proven technology only and the rigorous training of those |
| | charged with operating and maintaining that technology. |
