THERE I WAS... ASI ONLINE BY ASI STAFF TUNE INTO UNPREDICTABLE FLYING DILEMMAS HOP INTO THE COCKPIT WITH THE AOPA AIR Safety Institute's new podcast series, There I was... These podcasts honor the legendary and respected hangar-flying tradition of sharing experience and knowledge. Their conversational tone allows the guests and the podcast hosts to explore the merits of being resourceful. It also offers a valuable discussion on steps pilots can take for the best possible outcome of a flight. In Episode 1, U.S. National Aerobatic Champion Patty Wagstaff recounts a Cessna 185 flight in southwestern Alaska. That flight was a testimony of her ability to keep cool under pressure. Patty was aware of the region's weather patterns, but the sudden encounter with instrument conditions still took her by surprise. Episode 2 features Lee Lauderback, formerly the late Arnold Palmer's chief pilot. Lee founded and owns Stallion 51, a P-51 operation in Orlando. He recalls a landing gear emergency during a training flight in a TF-51 Mustang. This is a great opportunity for you and your students to listen to and afterwards discuss how these two skilled pilots evaluated their predicaments and took action (airsafetyinstitute.org/thereiwas).https://www.aopa.org/news-and-media/podcasts/there-i-was http://www.airsafetyinstitute.org/thereiwas
