    Yes these COULD pose a safety risk, until they are tested it’s unclear they are actually GOOD.

    FTFY.

    Air travel is one of the safest modes of transportation because we have these measures in place and take them seriously.

      And importantly, it wasn’t safe for a very long time, specifically because these rules and regs weren’t yet written. A TON of flight safety laws, rules, and guidelines have been written in direct response to accidents that have destroyed planes and killed everyone on them, so it’s actually quite accurate to say those rules are written in blood.
