In October 1943, AWTI was formally disbanded, having met the needs of Air Transport Command through the training of approximately 12,000 flight crew and 35,000 ground personnel. This series contains materials related to the organization, primarily AWTI publications.

Lederer served as director of the Cornell-Guggenheim Aviation Safety Center from 1950 until 1967. He held this position concurrently while serving as managing director of the Flight Safety Foundation. The Safety Center, which had accomplished its mandate to make aviation as safe as transportation by train, was closed soon after Lederer's retirement from the directorship. This series contains records related to the Safety Center and its work. Also included is information on the Crash Injury Research program originally established by Hugh deHaven at Cornell University Medical School. The aviation side of the program (which also included automotive safety) was transferred to the Cornell-Guggenheim Center following the center's establishment in 1950. It was renamed Aviation Crash Injury Research (AvCIR) and was later known as Aviation Safety and Engineering Research (AvSER). Additional materials related to AvCIR/AvSER, which became a subsidiary of the Flight Safety Foundation in 1959, can be found in the "Flight Safety Foundation" series.

The Flight Safety Foundation has its origins in two organizations formed in the late 1940s. In 1947, a meeting organized by Lederer led to the creation of Aircraft Engineering for Safety, an organization focused on the dissemination of safety information. Shortly afterward, this group merged with another group that had been formed to study cockpit design, and the combined organization adopted the name of the second group, Flight Safety Foundation. Lederer served as managing director of the Foundation from its formation until 1967. This series contains records relating to the activities of the Flight Safety Foundation and Lederer's work with the Foundation.
