Each month, the National FAASTeam office develops a "Topic Of The Month". The FPMs and REPs are requested to pass this information during presentations or during other training events. The month's topic is "Maneuvering Flight".
More than 25% of general aviation fatal accidents occur in the maneuvering phase of flight. Of those accidents - half involve stall/spin scenarios. Instructors are encouraged to discuss maneuvering flight hazard awareness, describe typical maneuvering flight accident scenarios, discuss best practices for successful maneuvering, and encourage pilots to seek training and proficiency in maneuvering flight operations. A PowerPoint program is available upon request.
As always, Verle and I greatly appreciate everything you do to support safety in our aviation community. Please let us know if you have any questions.
