Title:
VFR in the Wild West of Interstate 81 Airports
Topic:
Some non-towered airports in MD, WV, and VA feel like the Wild West. Let's explore how to make them safer.
Speaker(s):
Mike Johnson ATP CFI
Brief Description:
The non-towered airports along Interstate 81 are used by many students and certificated pilots for cross-country flights and to escape the Washington DC Special Flight Rules Area. There is often a mix of high performance aircraft, rotorcraft, and slow training aircraft on nice VMC days. This event will give CFI's and DPE's an opportunity to discuss safety strategies in an open forum setting. All ideas are welcome. Please join us for a morning of brainstorming training techniques to make our airspace safer.
