Title:
Pilot Confessions
Topic:
Good pilots are always learning
Date and Time:
Wednesday, March 28, 2018, starting at 19:00 Pacific Daylight Time Download Calendar File
Speaker(s):
Dan Dyer
Brief Description:

Wouldn’t it be great if all are flights were perfect?  Helmuth Karl Bernhard Graf von Moltke, Chief of Staff of the Prussian General Staff from 1857 to 1871, was quoted “No battle plan ever survives contact with the enemy”.

 

When we fly, hopefully we prepare for all contingencies based on the pilot, the aircraft, the environment, and the mission. But rarely does all go as expected. This allows us to gain experience and learning.

 

This seminar will not be streamed or archived as to offer a safe environment for pilots to come and share their stories with fellow pilots about flights that if they had to do them over again, they would have been done differently.  It is a round table discussion, each person sharing a story, with the audience and speaker.  This is a tremendous opportunity to share and learn from others.

 

Dan Dyer is Chief Pilot of San Carlos Flight Center and has been instructing for 11 years, first in helicopter and now in airplanes. He has almost 4,000 flight hours and is the Bay Area's local expert in crosswind landing instruction. He is known for finding simple and innovative ways to explain complex topics and regularly speaks on advanced ground school topics.  He co-founded and manages the Bay Area FlyOutGroup - a social club of over 400 pilots that meet for lunches, dinners, and other fun aerial adventures.
