Unite calls for offshore flight overhaul
Offshore industry bosses are failing to make commuter flights as safe as possible
Offshore industry bosses are failing in their "moral obligation" to make commuter flights as safe as possible, trade union Unite will tell MPs today.
The union repeated calls for "modest" safety reforms yesterday before its submission to MPs on the Commons transport committee.
Unite's Back Home Safe petition includes demands for improved emergency lighting and seating configurations, upgraded survival equipment and training and an independent review of ditching procedures.
