affects the approach, flight planning, briefing for departure,
enroute and arrival
Situational Awareness; Accident Avoidance; examples and
analysis and how we can avoid them, Weight and Balance; worksheet
and discussion
Performance Issues; airspeed uses in different scenarios,
temperatures, decent planning, engine management and IFR
factors.
Pete Zaccagnino will teach the seminar, along with two other
flight instructors. Al Campbell and Jeff Edwards both bring a
