Speaker(s):
Mr. Gopi Kurup, CFI, A&P, IA
Brief Description:

In this presentation, we will address recommendations from the General Aviation Joint Steering Committee – a government / industry group that analyzes GA accidents and incidents.  Recently the Committee studied system and component failure accidents and they determined that a significant number of fatal accidents result from unsuccessful forced landing attempts. The Committee feels that improved pilot knowledge of and proficiency in flying at best glide speed and configuration will increase the chances of a successful forced landing.
