	Now Featuring: "Do the Right Thing: Decision Making for Pilots" Safety Seminar

If there was one crucial skill that could cut your chance of having an accident by 75%, would you want to learn it? "Do the Right Thing: Decision Making for Pilots" takes direct aim at poor pilot judgment, the root cause of many—if not most—general aviation accidents. In this lively two-hour seminar, an ASF professional presenter will reveal no-nonsense strategies for breaking the accident chain early, avoiding the really tough calls, and preventing small mistakes from becoming big problems. Then, using compelling interactive DVD scenarios, you'll have an opportunity to practice your skills by making choices for the scenario pilots as they contend with some all-too-real predicaments. Caution: Some scenario scenes may not be suitable for non-pilots or nervous flying companions.
