Produktinformationen zu „The Killing Zone “
This literal survival guide for new pilots identifies "the killing zone," the 40-250 flight hours during which unseasoned aviators are likely to commit lethal mistakes. Presents the statistics of how many pilots will die in the zone within a year; calls attention to the eight top pilot killers (such as "VFR into IFR," "Takeoff and Climb"); and maps strategies for avoiding, diverting, correcting, and managing the dangers. Includes a Pilot Personality Self-Assessment Exercise that identifies pilot "types" and how each type can best react to survive the killing zone.
Klappentext zu „The Killing Zone “
The highest number of accidents occurs among pilots flying with between 40 and 250 hours. Pilots have passed the test, but have yet to gain the practical and critical decision making skills demanded by real flight. As a result pilots are making the same fatal mistakes over and over again. The Killing Zone presents the predictable statistics of how many pilots in the zone will die within a year and what they will be doing when death occurs. Chapters outline the top 8 killers individually and map strategies for avoiding, diverting, correcting, and managing the dangers.
