Speaker(s):
Daniel Vinson, CFI
Brief Description:

Beyond the Basics! We will address real-world considerations such as weather routing, fuel stop selection, and choosing suitable alternates. Attendees will also learn how to prioritize passenger comfort and get the most out of modern planning tools like ForeFlight to build safer, more efficient flights.

 

Next the focus shifts to once you're in the air and dynamic decision-making. This includes handling unexpected diversions and shifting weather to managing fatigue and making sound decisions. Emphasis will be placed on developing confident, well-reasoned go/no-go judgment when conditions change en route.
