6:15 Flight in the Danger Zone: Non Towered Airport Operations Presented by Bob Sutherlin, FAASTeam Program Manager and ATP/CFII . Operations at and near non-towered airports pose the greatest risk of a mid-air collision. Discuss best practices and procedures, review FAA regulations, learn recommended communication procedures in the airport traffic area, and learn how to be a good neighbor to corporate aircraft and LSA owners. This seminar always generates good discussions by all airmen. Don't miss it.
7:10 What You Can't See CAN Hurt You: Night Flying: Bob Sutherlin. Fall is just around the corner and so is early nightfall.
