Description
Fiesta 2024 Safety Seminar
Situational Awareness
It‘s not just about flying!
We are taught and drilled about Situational Awareness while in the basket, but what about outside the basket?
Why do students fail a checkride? And what about those big drones, the proliferation of weather apps, and even the changes happening with the insurance companies?
The 2024 Safety Seminar will take a look at all these areas and how they impact you and everyone around you, both in the air and on the ground.
