Loss of Control and The Impossible Turn
Preventing loss of control accidents, including a discussion of 'The Impossible Turn' after an engine failure on departure.

Date and Time: Wednesday, March 29, 2017, starting at 19:00 Arizona 

Speaker(s): Cary Grant

Brief Description:
Loss of aircraft control continues to be a leading concern of the NTSB and the FAA. We will discuss the leading causes of loss of control using accidents, with an emphasis on the takeoff and landing phases. Included in the presentation is a discussion on the "The impossible Turn", the too-often fatal urge for pilots to turn back to their departure airport should they experience a power or performance loss on the departure leg. The presentation will include several audio and video segments of accident sequences. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions and participate in the discussion.

Cary Grant, the speaker for the event, is an A320 captain, active general aviation pilot, and recognized safety advocate in Arizona.
