Top 5 Mistakes Pilots Make
It’s sad but true: In an average year, three quarters of all accidents are caused by pilot error. And the mistakes that lead to those accidents? For the most part, they're the same ones pilots have been making for decades.
ASF’s latest seminar takes new aim at those old mistakes. We’ve identified the most common fatal errors pilots make and put together a show that’s full of practical tips for avoiding them. From steering clear of weather to maneuvering safely and much more, if you’re looking to minimize your chances of being involved in a fatal accident, you’ll definitely want to attend this seminar!
Mastering Takeoffs and Landings
Every year takeoffs and landings account for more than half of all pilot-related accidents, and it's not just the new pilots who are having trouble. ASF's latest seminar gives you tips and techniques for making smooth, trouble-free departures and arrivals.
