A REVIEW OF ACCIDENT TRENDS, INTRODUCTION OF THE NEW WINGS PROGRAM FOLLOWED BY:
SPATIAL DISORIENTATION OR HOW TO KEEP THE BLUE SIDE UP!
We humans are VFR only creatures. The senses we use to keep the blue side up are completely unreliable when our bodies are in motion without visual reference to the world around us. Join us for life saving demonstration on why you need to be instrument proficient even if you are only a VFR pilot. Take a ride in the FAASTeam’s Spatial Disorientation Chair.
