"As a corporate pilot traveling on an airline, I was accosted by a belligerent passenger.

"In Canada we don’t have access to weapons like some other countries do, but flying all over the world we need to be prepared for anything.
The instructors came prepared for our flight department, and entertained and educated us on everything from cockpit breach survival training to hotel security, international security and a host of other topics. [Aviation Secure] brought up many topics that I had never even considered before.
I think the biggest takeaway was that we all needed to bring up our crew awareness when it comes to security.
This training was second to none - it was well worth the time and effort to bring them to our facility. Great job guys!”
—David Hilsabeck, Chief Pilot, The ATCO Group, Alberta, Canada
“Aviation Secure USA provided outstanding classroom instruction to the Federal and Contract Aviation Managers and Safety Officers during the 2006 U.S. D.O.E. workshop. ASUSA’s instructors are very credible Aviation Security experts. They presented very timely, well-researched material on aviation security management. The presentation was so highly rated by our managers that we invited them back to our 2007 workshop.”
—Dave Lopez, Senior Aviation Policy Officer, United States Department of Energy, Washington D.C.
"Having Aviation Secure USA come to our hangar for safety and security training has been a huge success, not only for our flight crews - who fly international and domestic trips - but for our in-house office staff as well. There is something for everyone to learn and take away.
Training is specifically tailored for our flight operations and everything they discuss and teach is extremely relevant.
The topics they covered and the hands-on training we received is useful, not just on the road, but also in our home lives. It has made me feel more confident knowing I can handle and defend myself in challenging environments.
The instructors’ unassuming and entertaining presentation styles kept everyone attentive and open to receiving their life-saving information.
Everyone has said “It’s the best training I’ve ever done!” Thank you! You guys rock!”
