ABSTRACT
This chapter presents the cabin safety workshop report. Where twenty-one delegates attended the Cabin Safety Workshop. Delegates included representatives of regional, domestic and international airlines, the Australian Defence Force Directorate of Flying Safety, the Universities of NSW and Melbourne, management specialists, cabin crew and cabin crew/psychology students. Airline experience ranged from a minimum of four years through to the 40 years of a flight attendant from Northwest Airlines, USA. At the concluding general assembly of the Symposium, the Cabin Safety Workshop Report commenced with a request for delegates to consider the areas of concern in cabin safety, the possibility for cabin safety research projects, and issued the following recommendation to the Australian Aviation Psychology Association (AAvPA): That research be undertaken to study the interrelationship of the total crew, with a view to solving long standing safety problems, and further, to fully include cabin crew as integral to the safe operation of air passenger transport.
