Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s):
More accidents occur in the takeoff and landing phases of flight than any other. It is the close proximity to the ground that leaves less margin for error. Some pilots never really master the basics, then it's only a matter of time before they have a problem. Is the runway long enough? Are there obstructions? What is the density altitude? Is there a cross-wind? How good is your airspeed control? Do you know how to successfully recover from a bounced landing or when to go around? These are just some of the considerations that are addressed in this safety seminar.
Thanks to East Hill Flying Club for another in a series of safety seminars! 141 Chief Instructor David St. George has over 40,000 landings and works as a pilot examiner in the Rochester FSDO area. Bring your questions and suggestions and lets learn to fly (and land) more safely!
