The Archives is a repository for unique or rare, primary materials relating to aviation safety and security. Although our collections don't circulate like library books, we do welcome researchers to use them both on site and on-line.
Our Digital Library contains digital documents, including thousands of photographs, letters, reports, and other documents, most of which offer full text.
Contact us for reference services—we'll be happy to help you find what you need via email or phone, and we can often provide electronic copies of documents for personal use.
The Crash Injury Research Project (CIR) was established at Cornell University Medical College in March 1942 to broaden the scope of accident investigation to include information on injuries and to use this information to improve aircraft design to eliminate or lessen causes of injury. This handbook was written for the use of investigators who reported accident injury information to CIR.
