Perhaps if each head was offset (left and right)... I am concerned about floatation issues if separated from mom. It appears that junior would be face-down. other minor thoughts: give mom some adjustable lumbar support connected to junior (I hate typical airline seats) --could be used to keep junior from leaning back into the next forward passenger's seat. good idea though --kudos!

I feel like there is a need for child safety on a plane. The airlines do not offer much for small children, you are just expected to hold them on your lap. I think this product would also be useful if the parent does not want to have to be physically controlling their child’s movements. The parent can just rely on the fact that the child is attached to them and cannot go anywhere. I like how the child can be detached from the parent and can still walk around in the device. It may look kind of strange, but for some reason, maybe it is just the photographs, but I think it is kind of cute. I think the emphasis on the hard back is a nice design element. I do, however, think there are a few complications with this device. How is the parent supposed to entertain the child? Read books to them, play with toys and what not, when the child is so close to the parent. I also feel that the child’s legs might be crushed into the seat. It may be meant for smaller children, but the child in the picture looks like there legs would be swished into the seat. Maybe this idea could be translated into a front facing device so the child does not have to stare at the parent’s chest the whole ride, might create a lot of fidgeting. They would probably want more stimulation then that. I think it would be a good idea if the device also incorporated a life vest of some sort or as someone else said, a way to determine the child’s parent if they get separated. But all and all I think this is a great idea, definitely a step in the right direction, considering at the moment there isn’t much. I really enjoyed this design.

These little childs haven`t the corporality to resist emerging belt-strengths!

The hard-backed child-pod can be detached or attached with minimum fuss, allowing free hand movement in an emergency situation. The Skylino will definitely cut down one more excuse for parents to keep their baby at home while going on a holiday trip.
