Instructor and primary student experienced significant power loss at 300 feet over Vancouver WA off Pearson Field (KVUO) in April, 2019. With the help of dashcam video, CFI Philip Mandel will share lessons learned from the scariest two minutes of his life. He says he did more things wrong than right yet still managed to nurse the Beech Musketeer back to the field and land opposite direction without bending anything.

During this 2021 NW Mountain Virtual Aviation Safety Week; We will be offering four daily safety presentations each day, starting March 23, 2021 through March 27, 2021

Phil Mandel - Presenter: When Philip was young, he had no idea flying could be affordable for someone with an average income or possible for someone with an IQ under 200 – that was until he met a private pilot, just a “regular guy” with an average job, who flew for fun and owned a beautiful Mooney M20. The very next day, Phil drove to his local flight school and signed up for lessons. The bug bit so deeply that sometimes he went for two or even three flight lessons per day! That was back in 1981. He earned his Private Pilot certificate followed by an Instrument rating, Commercial Pilot certificate, CFI, CFI-I, MEI, and more recently AGI and IGI certificates and ratings.

Through the years he has owned airplanes ranging from a C-150 to a Piper Apache and is currently the proud owner of his tenth flying machine, a Thorp T-18 (Experimental). Now a “recovering engineer,” Phil is an independent flight instructor based at Starks Twin Oaks Airpark (7S3) near Hillsboro OR.

We would like to extend a special thanks to all our presenters for their participation and ongoing support of Aviation Safety and the FAA Safety Team.
