In this photo taken June 16, 2010, John Kausner of Clarence Center, N.Y., left, who's 24-year-old daughter Ellyce died in the crash of Continental Connection Flight 3407 in Feb. 2009, talks to Jeffrey Smisek, right, Continental Airlines President and CEO, to request his support for new airline safety provisions outside a congressional committee hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington.
