Brief Description:
“Cockpit 2 Cowl,” with Brian Schiff and Jeff Simon, is a program that explores General Aviation safety topics from the combined perspectives of Flight Instructors, Pilots, and Mechanics, focusing on both man and machine to make aviation safer and more enjoyable.
“Reliance on Aviation Safety: A Mindset That Will Kill You Too” is a concise, impactful episode that will challenge your automatic trust in “the system” and reveal how overconfidence in procedures, technology, and statistics can diminish vigilance and judgment. Using recent accidents and human-factors research, Brian and Jeff demonstrate how small shifts from active risk management to passive reliance can create deadly traps—and they provide practical strategies to restore a proactive, skeptical safety mindset before it’s tested in the real world.
