- Chris Konecnik is an airline captain and an active member of both Strong Towns and the Charlotte Urbanists organization in Charlotte, North Carolina. He decided to participate as a panelist because he finds the statistics on roadway fatalities in auto-oriented environments throughout the U.S. to be really unsettling. Chris sees a lot of deliberate efforts in the aviation industry to build out safety protocols and believes that similar attention could help improve our roadways and transportation systems.
