SUMMARY:Planning a Flight with ForeFlight
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will only be available for online viewing. IN-PERSON ATTENDANCE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.** \nClick here to learn more about online viewing \n  \n\n\n\nForeFlight is a useful tool for many pilots as it provides a number of tools a pilot might need to plan a flight\, obtain a weather briefing\, and track their flight in real time. Living in a digital age\, pilots should learn to use tools like this to enhance their overall flight planning process. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites commercial pilot Travis Bender to provide a walk-through of how they use ForeFlight to plan a cross-country flight. In this seminar\, they will investigate what it takes to accurately plot checkpoints\, calculate performance values\, and ensure that you as the pilot are familiar with “all available information concerning a flight.” The presenters will start the session with a sample flight mission so that viewers/attendees can follow along in real-time using ForeFlight on their own device. \nForeFlight offers a wealth of features that can sometimes be overwhelming. We hope you will join us for this seminar to see a practical aspect of this app towards real-world flight planning. \n \n\n\nTravis Bender is a commercial pilot who learned to fly at the Flight Center. He is actively working on his CFI rating and leads the Marketing and Events team at SCFC. When he’s not at the airport\, Travis currently works in a strategic finance role at a major Silicon Valley company. \n \n\n\nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation through safety\, community\, and adventure. AOPA has consistently recognized SCFC in their Best Flight School survey\, most recently in 2022 as a Distinguished Flight School. \nSCFC is committed to promoting safety in general aviation through our regular safety seminars and guest speaker programs. Livestream access is free for everyone\, but recorded seminars are available solely to members at a later date.

SUMMARY:How a Seaplane Rating Will Save Your Life
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will only be available for online viewing. IN-PERSON ATTENDANCE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.** \nClick here to learn more about online viewing \n  \n\n\n\nHave you ever thought about how having a Seaplane rating will enhance your knowledge of how to handle emergencies? Most pilots have never had to think about landing in the water\, until the unexpected happens. Which way will you land? Gear up\, down\, or does it matter? Open the doors before you land? How can you practice an emergency water landing? \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites CFI Shane Terpstra to discuss how a Seaplane rating can be a useful rating for pilots. Most of us spend a lot of time looking down as the ground goes by thinking about the best place to put our airplanes in the event of an emergency. Living in an area where water surrounds us\, the possibility of having to ditch becomes even more prevalent. With a Seaplane rating\, pilots can feel more at ease about safely evaluating the landing site\, and ditching in the water. In this seminar\, Shane will discuss how Seaplane pilots can understand the water below\, and carefully handle all the risks. \nJoin us for this unique opportunity to explore the benefit of adding a seaplane rating to your certificate. \n \n\n\nShane Terpstra is an Airline Transport Pilot\, Certificated Flight Instructor (Single & Multi-Engine Land and Single-Engine Sea) with Instrument Privileges\, an FAA Gold Seal Flight Instructor and a NAFI Master Instructor. After pursuing a career in Information Technology\, Shane stayed true to his passion for aviation by continuously flying or advancing his ratings over the past 30 years. Shane has over a decade of experience as a flight instructor and is currently the Director of Safety and Chief Pilot for the largest flight club in the world. Shane is a passionate aviation enthusiast\, FAA FAASTeam Lead Representative\, NTSB-trained Accident Investigator\, and former airline Captain. He is also a former Civil Air Patrol Incident Commander and SAR Pilot with over 20 years of experience. \n \n\n\nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation through safety\, community\, and adventure.

SUMMARY:Lessons Learned from the Airlines
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will only be available for online viewing. IN-PERSON ATTENDANCE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.** \nClick here to learn more about online viewing \n  \nEarning a pilot certificate means getting a ticket to learn. But how do you learn without making mistakes? Good judgment comes from experience\, and experience comes from bad judgment. More advanced ratings provide exposure to challenging situations. In particular\, pilots transitioning to the airlines train to deal with challenging scenarios and to work with others to safely make the right decisions. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites Airline Captain Jessica Reinschmidt to share lessons learned from the airlines. In this seminar\, Jessica will discuss how her complex training prepared her to perform under pressure\, effectively work with others\, and practice proper resource management both inside and outside of the flightdeck. Learn from real life examples recognizing hazardous scenarios\, how to handle them\, and knowing which resources to use. \nWe encourage everyone to join us for this unique opportunity to learn from an experienced aviation professional\, ask questions\, and improve your skills. \n \n\n\nJessica Reinschmidt is an Airbus Captain at Alaska Airlines\, by way of Virgin America.  Her path to the flight deck has not been a straight shot. Instead\, she followed an indirect path to follow her dream. After being told in High School that she could never be an airline pilot\, she pursued a degree in Meteorology\, but found that her guidance counselor was wrong. She transferred to the University of Illinois’ Combined Flight/Maintenance Program. She has experience being a Line Fueler\, Gate Agent\, Ramp Agent\, Customer Service Supervisor\, and long time CFI before landing her first airline job with Mesa Airlines in 2005. She grew up in suburban Chicago\, where she continues to live with her husband (a Spirit Pilot)\, and her two sons. \n \n\n\nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation through safety\, community\, and adventure. AOPA has consistently recognized SCFC in their Best Flight School survey\, most recently in 2022 as a Distinguished Flight School. \nSCFC is committed to promoting safety in general aviation through our regular safety seminars and guest speaker programs.

SUMMARY:The Devil in the Details of Practical Tests – Insights from a DPE
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will only be available for online viewing. IN-PERSON ATTENDANCE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.** \nClick here to learn more about online viewing \n  \n\n\n\nCheckrides can be intimidating. Leading up to a checkride\, applicants always hear about the stories of failure. Often applicants get too caught up in the failures of others\, what they did wrong\, and how the examiner “wanted” them to fail. This leads many to prepare themselves specifically for one examiner\, meanwhile overlooking the details of the ACS standards and the habits that could ultimately make them a better pilot. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites Designated Pilot Examiner (DPE)\, Scott Rohlfing\, to share with applicants how a detailed approach to flying can set them apart from the rest of the applicants. DPEs do not just evaluate an applicant on their ability to perform within ACS skill standards\, but the way they behave in practice\, the risks they take\, and their overall aeronautical decision making. In this seminar\, learn how to develop good flying practices through the attention to detail. The Airmen Certification Standards refers to many of the following details as evaluation criteria including\, the proper and consistent use of checklists throughout every phase of flight\, the positive exchange of flight controls\, real time weather briefings\, the usage and familiarization of all installed equipment in the aircraft\, and much more. Learn to be aware of the way you operate and the bad habits you’ve already developed as a fledgling pilot. These details\, individually may not fail you on a check ride\, but collectively they will end in a notice of disapproval or worst case\, an NTSB investigation or Pilot Deviation. Make it your mission to become a detail-oriented\, safe and competent pilot. \nJoin us for this unique opportunity to hear from a DPE on how you can improve the way you fly\, and feel confident about your next practical test.\n\n\n  \nScott Rohlfing is a DPE in the San Jose FSDO District and has conducted almost 1\,000 practical tests.  As a Gold Seal Flight Instructor he has given more than 6500 hours of dual instruction to CFIs and pilots of every level.  When not evaluating airmen or providing training\, Scott has been a corporate pilot for 17 years and an active political advocate against the closure of Reid Hillview Airport.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation through safety\, community\, and adventure. AOPA has consistently recognized SCFC in their Best Flight School survey\, most recently in 2022 as a Distinguished Flight School. \nSCFC is committed to promoting safety in general aviation through our regular safety seminars and guest speaker programs.

SUMMARY:G1000 Idiosyncrasies
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will only be available for online viewing. IN-PERSON ATTENDANCE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.** \nClick here to learn more about online viewing \n  \nThe G1000 instrument panel for small aircraft has been certified as a class III EFB (no paper required in the cockpit) for years. Pilots trust the G1000 avionics as a reliable source to deliver information while in flight; but there are many intricacies that many pilots do not know about. Safety requires a full discussion of some specific choices Garmin made in system design\, to prevent encountering something the pilot was preferred for. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites King Air Captain and check airman Ben Taber to discuss the idiosyncrasies related to the G1000 avionics. In this seminar\, Taber will highlight things that pilots should be aware of while operating planes equipped with these avionics. The G1000 often has airspace lines that aren’t depicted on the MFD\, flight plan entry restrictions\, invalid weather depictions\, no radio altimeters\, and countless other complications while operating under IFR. \nJoin us as you learn about these new things that might’ve never appeared to you while flying this aircraft. \n \n\n\nCapt. Bennett Taber is a check airman and training captain with over 35 years and 18\,000 hours of air charter experience throughout the western United States. His first 500 hours of flying were conducted in Alaska. Captain Taber manages flight operations and charter sales for Dreamline Aviation in the San Francisco Bay Area and is a Dreamline Training Captain in Beech King Air aircraft. \n \n\n\nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation through safety\, community\, and adventure.

DESCRIPTION:This seminar will only be available for online viewing. IN-PERSON ATTENDANCE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.** \nClick here to learn more about online viewing \n  \n\n\n\nPilots live or die by the weather we fly in. We fly in a fish tank of air. Understanding whether that air is going to be like the calm\, crystal blue waters of the lagoons of Cook’s island or turbulent like an impending Tsunami is part of being a competent pilot. Although weather hasn’t changed since the FAA declared that all weather is a result of heat exchange\, weather prediction\, forecasting and weather services are constantly evolving. \nSan Carlos Flight Center Chief Pilot Herb Patten investigates the different types of weather products available to pilots. In this seminar\, we will take a look at what’s new on Aviation Weather Center\, aka aviationweather.gov. We will explore some recent changes to the prognostic charts\, turbulence forecasts as well as some other useful products. We will also explore the replacement for the Area Forecast\, the “Graphical Forecast for Aviation\,” which offers a wealth of features available for pilots. \nBe more weather aware on your next flight\, and join us for this safety seminar. \n \n\n\nHerb Patten is the Chief Pilot at the San Carlos Flight Center\, a CFI and an FAA certificated advanced and instrument ground instructor who teaches private pilot ground school at San Carlos Flight Center.  He is a commercial pilot with an instrument rating\, has flown over 2\,500 hours in more than 130 different California airports.  He is the current chairman of the Upwind Foundation\, famous for its Upwind Summer Scholarship Program. In 2021\, Herb was named a Distinguished Flight Instructor by AOPA. \n \n\n\nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation through safety\, community\, and adventure.
