Brief Description:
Seminar and Airport Open House Postponed until Sunday May 21, due to forecast poor weather for tomorrow!
This is one of two FAASTeam Safety Seminars held in conjunction with the Annual Meriden Markham Airport Fly-In and Public Safety Day.
Cross-country flying is an amazing experience but it involves careful planning of the aircraft, weather, route, and pilot. Join CFI and FAASTeam Representative Jason T. Archer to hear what it was like to fly 1600 miles in a 1941 Piper Cub from Key West to Massachusetts, in the middle of winter. As the adventure is told including incredible aerial footage, we’ll look at the lessons to be learned with regard to making sure your aircraft is capable, long-range weather planning, fuel management, back to basics flight planning and navigation, and how to plan for and deal with the unexpected. Please join us for this unique and exciting presentation for pilots and non-pilots alike. Discover why the Piper Cub might just be the best cross-country flying machine ever made! Rain date: May 21, 2017.
