When it comes to radio communication between flying objects, the single most important thing a pilot can do is be on the right frequency.
Human Factors
A tool of the trade
The Leatherman multi-tool is one I’ve seen many a pilot sport. Apparently, it’s so well loved it’s even found its way into reports to NASA’s Aviation Safety Reporting System.
Inattention to detail
Inattention to detail can lead to accidents.
Now that’s something to get excited about
Excitement while flying can be good and bad.
Fear: Real or imagined
Our fear is largely self-induced — and what we fear drives our thinking and how we behave.
Human Factors: Mindset
When it comes to mindset, pilots must possess a fixed mindset, but be able to adapt when needed.
Miscommunication common at airshows
Even when NOTAMs are issued, the human factor leads to miscommunication.
Self-doubt is a good thing
Our ability to trust our inner doubt can be the difference between an NMAC and an uneventful flight.
Flying with animals
Our canine and other companions deserve our protection.
Mindlessness
Mindlessness is when we the past determine the present.
Communication in the cockpit
How well we communicate impacts how well we fly.
Not all RNAVs are created equal
More than 900 non-ILS airports employ more than 1,500 LPV RNAV approaches. Know the differences between all of them before you launch.
