AIRBAG SEATBELT INSTALL REPORT

I read the seatbelt airbag article in the August 2020 Aviation Consumer and promptly ordered an AmSafe SOARS kit for my Mooney. The installation was straightforward, and I’m hoping never to provide a user review. As a physician, I’ve seen the horrific damage to a face that’s taken a severe blow in an accident. Many drivers and pilots/passengers have suffocated after hitting the panel or yoke, while survivors deal with pain and disfigurement. Three-point belts reduce this.
