Title:
Loss of Control / TFR & ADIZ Awareness
Topic:
Loss of Control / TFR & ADIZ Awareness
Brief Description:
Loss of Control accidents continue to kill pilots at an alarming rate. Learn how to avoid situations that lead to loss of aircraft control. Also, learn how to avoid an inadvertent trip into a Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) or unauthorized transgression into the Washington ADIZ. Were you aware that the ADIZ boundaries recently changed? Pilots that participate in a recurrent training program such as the FAA's New Pilot Proficiency Award Program (WINGs) experience far fewer accidents and incidents than those who do not. Don't miss this opportunity to become a safer pilot. We'll see you there!

Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s):
Since the invention of the airplane pilots have been plagued by loss of control and spin accidents. What causes a pilot to lose control? What causes an airplane to spin? More importantly, how can a pilot recognize and avoid situations that could lead to an accident of this type. Also, in the last few years we have seen significant changes in the airspace structure of the country. Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) and Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) airspace have become much more commonplace. What is the purpose of this type airspace? What are the flight restrictions imposed by it? How does a pilot avoid intruding into the airspace? These questions and others will be answered in a seminar designed to address flying in the world of Special Use Airspace.
