Title:
AOPA Air Safety Institute Safety Seminar - Trapped in the Hills - Deadly Complacency
Topic:
Join ASI’s Adam Rarey to explore how familiar routes can lead to cockpit complacency—and how to avoid the trap.
Speaker(s):
Adam Rarey, Air Safety Institute Video Producer & CFI
Brief Description:
In this harrowing real pilot story, a routine flight turns fatal as a father and son rely on their familiarity with the region’s terrain, despite the intense mountain turbulence and sinking ceiling on one chilly November day following a weekend adventure.
ASI’s Real Pilot Stories allow pilots to share their encounters with dilemmas so others can benefit—while comfortably on the ground—from lessons learned the hard way in flight.
