Winter Flying Tips
Speaker(s):
Mitch Williams
Brief Description:
-
Pre-flight tasks and even the commute to the airport can take longer in winter so pilots are encouraged to allow extra time before and after each flight.
-
Forced landings in snow often feature fewer and less severe injuries but survival on the ground depends on having survival knowledge, skill, and equipment.
-
Pilots must accurately conduct thorough pre and post flight inspections including the aircraft surfaces are free of snow, ice, and frost contamination.
-
Pilots should wear clothing appropriate for outdoor activity in the environment over which they’ll be flying.
-
Essential survival gear should be carried on one’s person – not stowed in baggage compartments.
