Abstract:

Seat belts alone will protect you only in minor impacts. Using shoulder belts in small aircraft would reduce major injuries by 88% and fatalities by 20%. Shoulder belt kits are now available for most airplanes. Automobile child seats provide good protection for small children in aircraft. If improperly installed and used, restraints could cause injury. Restraint systems in small aircraft: a smart idea!
