Agenda
Part 1) FAA Safety Information Session
You’ll hear the latest from your local FAASTeam Reps including, Local Safety Issues, General Aviation (GA) services and oversight / office information. You’ll also learn the history of Safety Stand Down events and how you can participate in exciting continuation education projects for pilots and aviation maintenance technicians.
Part 2) Introduction to Human Error
There’s a lot to be learned from reading accident reports but it takes some digging and a little special knowledge to understand why mistakes occur and, more importantly how to avoid them or at least make their consequences less severe. This fascinating and entertaining look at the interface between the aviation system and the human mind is something no pilot will want to miss.
Part 3) Loss of Control Discussion
Respected aviation experts will discuss Loss of Control accidents and offer advice on how to hone your skills and sharpen your judgment to get more utility, safety, and fun from your flying. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions and participate in the discussion.
Attend this exclusive FAASTeam presentation and…
- Become part of the ongoing FAASTeam effort to improve aviation safety,
- Discover new ways to approach safety, how to identify risks and how to reduce those risks, and
- Learn methods and procedures to sharpen your judgment and flight discipline — those key behavioral elements of safe flying – and increase your situational awareness.
