Training flight on wrong frequency rattles nerves

By General Aviation News Staff · April 29, 2025 · 4 Comments

Later in the day we found that our radio silence had rattled nerves and caused problems for the flight school. We spoke to the flight school manager and offered our apologies for causing a disruption.

ASRS Report Human Factors

I believe that “get-there-itis” (the airplane was due back at 0900 and I was worried about being late) tempted me to exit the runway while traveling a bit faster than I would normally do.

Pilot on collision course in pattern

By General Aviation News Staff · April 17, 2025 · 2 Comments

When I saw them in the left window, they were the same altitude less than a quarter mile turning towards us fast. They were in our blind spot as we were climbing (they were slightly higher). I cut power and did an emergency descent to the right to avoid getting hit.

ASRS Report Human Factors

I had to turn around on the runway very quickly and get off as quick as I could to avoid a mid-air accident with a crop duster who took off from the middle of the field, without making radio calls, on a runway that the prevailing winds did not align with.

Crowded CTAF leads to near-miss

ASRS Environment

I approached him to hear his side of the story. To my surprise he was very apologetic. He said he only heard my first radio call (5 miles downwind) but not any of my other calls after that. He agreed with me that the CTAF was crowded at that time and it was difficult to make our position calls.

Training flight causes another plane to go-around

ASRS Report Human Factors

The issue we caused: We caused a very hazardous situation. We were taking off while an airplane is going around. Same flight path. Not good.
