Title:
Emergencies Procedure Training and Aging Gracefully for Senior Pilots
Topic:
Emergencies Procedure Training and Pilots Aging Gracefully
Speaker(s):
Dan Christman, Earl Jobson
Brief Description:
Emergencies Procedure Training. We’ll discuss recommendations from a work group that studies loss of control. The General Aviation Joint Steering Committee or GAJSC is a government/industry group that studies GA accidents and makes recommendations for adoption of what they call safety enhancements. One safety enhancement promotes Emergency Procedures Training as a means to reduce fatal general aviation accidents. Scenario-based Training is encouraged because it places pilots in realistic, complex situations; works well for single and multi-engine airplanes and it’s also effective in Computer-based training and Simulation.
A frank discussion on how the human aging process affects pilots’ performance, judgment ,and decision making abilities in the later years of lifetime. How do we identify when our personal aviation skills begin to falter? What are the remedies so that aging pilots can continue safe and enjoyable recreational flying in later stages of their lives? How is this most important for flight instructors who have spent most of their flying careers instructing others? How does aviation ego get in the way of good judgment of personal flying skills? Discussion will include feedback from members in the audience.
