Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s):
This presentation is a FAASTeam national emphasis program. We'll review some local accidents and discuss what went wrong. This program includes an open discussion aimed at improving your aircraft maneuvering skills. The time is now; learn to land on speed, on spot and under control!
Each year insurance companies pull out their check books and pay claims resulting from minor aircraft accidents. Subsequently, the pilots involved in these accidents take re-examination flight checks conducted by the FAA; those pilots are the lucky ones. The unfortunate ones occasionally pay the ultimate price!
The FAASTeam endeavors to prevent any of these accidents from ever taking place. Attending this program and participating in the WINGs Pilot Proficiency Program is your path to reducing risk and avoiding an insurance claim or a listing on the accident statistical charts!
