In its “Aviation No Tie Downs” YouTube video series, Lightspeed Aviation introduces us to Navigation Flying, a general aviation sport of flying as precisely as possible.
Two pilots, who call themselves the The NavGeeks, talk with Lightspeed’s Teresa De Mers explaining what skills are required of the pilots, how navigation flying is different from other aviation sports, and how this discipline is more than just “spot the tree.” Typical disciplines range from flying a constructed course within seconds to recognizing predetermined images along the course to precision landings.
