All attempts involve enforcement of standing safety requirements as laid down in the Federal Aviation Regulations and elaborated upon in a variety of documents, such as Aerospace Recommended Practices, Advisory Circulars, and technical reports. These requirements are kept technologically current by dozens of ad hoc committees operating under the aegis of organizations like the Society of Automotive Engineers.

The endurance of slide material to the radiant heat from a fuel fire is enhanced when the slide fabric has an aluminized coating. Additional aircraft cabin fire-safety features include lavatory smoke detectors and trashbin extinguisher bottles, mandatory hand-held extinguishers for onboard use, floor proximity escape path lighting, and protective breathing equipment for the cabin and flight deck crew.
