Russ Kuhlen
Brief Description:

This discussion will be led by Russ Kuhlen, Certified Flight Instructor with decades of flight experience. We will start by sharing a video that sets-up our scenario,"West Coast Direct" - (Topic: Sometimes terrain, weather, and winds conspire to make a three-dimensional puzzle with no clear solution. The best route for terrain might have the worst weather. The shortest route may have no airports for diversion. Flying higher for more options in an emergency may mean accepting brutal headwinds. How will you balance these factors today?  Analyze the situation and compare your ADM with the video analysis).

We will be discussing different course of action through input all of the attendees.  Through our discussion you will learn that scenarios can be handled differently.
