A previous *AVweb* poll revealed that nearly half (49%) of readers surveyed intend to attend the same number of aviation events as always, despite the economic climate.
This week's poll asks readers to share their opinions on appropriate security measures for flight school planes.
The new poll was prompted by a recent Cessna 172 theft from Thunder Bay, which reignited debate over flight school security.
