Title:
EAA Chapter 75 IMC Club Presents- Boosting Flight Safety with Visual Traffic and AOA Technologies
Topic:
Enhancing Collision Avoidance and Flight Safety through Visual Traffic Separation and Angle of Attack Technologies
Date and Time:
Tuesday, June 2, 2026, starting at 18:00 Central Daylight Time Download Calendar File
Speaker(s):
Dan Murphy, Bernie Nitz
Brief Description:

Join us for an enlightening FAASTeam presentation on "Visual Traffic Separation and Collision Avoidance." This session will provide invaluable insights into:

  • The responsibilities of pilots in collision avoidance.
  • The impact of distractions and complacency on safety.
  • The duties of pilots when operating under ATC-issued visual clearances.

Additionally, the presentation will cover:

  • Technologies for clearance avoidance.
  • How proficiency training through the Wings program can enhance collision avoidance effectiveness.

Angle of Attack Technologies for Pilots: This video presentation explores angle of attack indicators. It demonstrates the correlation between AOA indications and the onset of a wing stall condition, guiding pilots on how to interpret and respond to this information. The use of AOA technology is recommended by the FAA and GAJSC to reduce loss-of-control (LOC) accidents by providing a direct measure of wing safety margin.
