Title:
Rochester EAA Chapter 44 Safety Presentation
Topic:
CFIT – A Fresh Look
Date and Time:
Tuesday, January 16, 2024, starting at 19:30 Eastern Standard Time Download Calendar File
Speaker(s):
Gene Benson, FAA Safety Team Representative
Brief Description:

Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT) has been an accident causal factor since the early days of aviation. Increased pilot awareness and advances in technology have resulted in a decline in CFIT accidents over the past 20 years. But we still have multiple CFIT accidents each year, with many of them fatal. 

No level of pilot certification nor any category or class of aircraft is immune from the CFIT accident. This presentation takes a lively and fresh look at CFIT avoidance with special consideration on advances in our understanding of human factors along with the technological assistance currently available.
