Raising the Bar (or “I learned about flying from that!”)
The BFC’s David Cox will presentstatistics and look at the most common causes of flying accidents. Share your stories of past flying experiences that have helped you improve your flying performance, proficiency, preparedness, competency, safety and also the enjoyment of this great passion of ours. This “TOUGH-LOVE” session will outline David’s observations over the past years of some of the behaviours that need to be addressed to ensure that none of us become a statistic in an annual summary report.
