Airplane Safety Equipment – A View From the Top

Look up! Right now there are approximately 5,000 planes in the air over the United States. That’s a lot of safety equipment. We thought it would be interesting and quasi-relevant to our business, to figure out approximately how much of this type of equipment is flying around US skies at any given time. And as we expected, from crash axes, to first aid kits, to emergency slides and locator beacons, the lengths that the aviation industry goes to ensure the safety of its passengers and staff is impressive.
