SUMMARY:Using the KLN89B/94 GPS for IFR Flight
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\nThe Bendix/King KLN89B/94 can be a powerful GPS navigation tool for IFR flight. The systems have been around for decades and are found in many aircraft.  It may have been a while since you took a close look at the functionality of these units and their ability for use in IFR flight. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites Assistant Chief Pilot Brian Eliot to describe the functionality of  these capable units. He will review the buttonology and knowledge required to confidently operate the unit in various IFR scenarios. While many of these units are being replaced with newer technology\, renter or veteran pilots might still encounter them and should know how to operate them. Take the time now to become better acquainted with the operations of these units. Knowledge on your aircrafts avionics package is crucial for flight safety\, and the KLN89B/94 is no exception. \nThere is a reason why they are still approved by the FAA for IFR Flight. Join us to find out how to use this capable system on your next flight.\n\n\n  \nBrian Eliot is San Carlos Flight Center’s Assistant Chief Pilot and resident expert for IFR training and Garmin G1000 avionics. He has been flying since 1995 and received all his training in the Bay Area. Brian previously worked as a broadcast engineer\, a software developer\, and taught computer science at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

SUMMARY:An Insight on California Weather From NWS Specialists
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 get a glimpse of weather theory during their training but struggle to understand localized weather patterns. Wouldn’t it be great to have the knowledge equivalent to a real meteorologist? Or wouldn’t it be valuable to hear directly from a weather specialist that creates aviation forecasts? Over many years\, pilots may develop a general notion of what to expect during certain seasons but still may be not able to understand nuanced weather conditions. With the help and knowledge from an NWS Weather Specialist\, pilots can better understand the weather we fly in. \nNow is your opportunity to improve your weather IQ! San Carlos Flight Center invites National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) weather specialists Rick Canepa and Sean Miller to discuss how they create aviation weather forecasts. Learn about atmospheric soundings common to clouds and fog formation that impact aviation. Listen in as they explain the role of the aviation weather specialist and how they compose TAFs\, analyze local weather patterns\, and provide crucial weather information for pilots. \nIf you have always been intrigued about weather\, don’t miss this seminar. Rick and Sean will be ready to answer your weather questions. Don’t be left in the fog – put this seminar on your schedule. \n \n\n\nRick Canepa grew up in Massachusetts with an early interest in science\, in particular meteorology. After graduating from high school he went to Vermont and earned his Bachelor of Science degree in meteorology at Lyndon State College in 1993. Rick began his NWS career in Helena\, MT in 1995\, then after the office closed 10 months later he transferred to NWS San Francisco Bay Area/Monterey\, CA in late 1995. Rick returned to work in Montana at the NWS Billings office from 1999 to 2001. Rick then made his way back to the NWS San Francisco Bay Area/Monterey\, CA office and has been working there since late 2001. Rick has almost 28 years experience in aviation\, marine\, public and fire weather forecasting as a NWS meteorologist. \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:A Perspective on Night Flying from a Human Factors Specialist
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\nOn November 6th\, Daylight Savings Time will be ending\, and will bring early nightfall. For those of us who work a regular 9-5 schedule\, early nightfall means an increase in night flying. Less ambient light means increased aeromedical challenges throughout all phases of flight. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites ATP\, flight crew safety author\, and flight instructor Dale Wilson to discuss some of the physiological and psychological limitations pilots exhibit when flying at night. In this seminar\, he will touch on potential dangers associated with relying on outside references during VFR flight and the effects of flight conditions present on VMC segments of IFR flight at night. As our eyesight diminishes at night\, our thought processes can too. While night flight brings reduced ATC workloads\, often calmer winds\, and cooler temperatures that help performance it is important to recognize the human factors’ limitations during this time. \nYour decision whether or not to fly at night is based on a culmination of the knowledge retained within this seminar\, and your re-evaluation of your night personal minimums. \n \n\n\nDale Wilson\, M.S. ATP\, CFI\, MCFI/MGI\, is Professor Emeritus at Central Washington University in Ellensburg\, WA\, and is the author of popular ASA books\, Managing Risk: Best Practices for Pilots\, and more recently\, Human Factors: Enhancing Pilot Performance. Since 1996\, he has taught courses dealing with the physiological and psychological aspects of pilot performance\, safety management\, threat and error management\, and aviation weather. He continues his passion by writing numerous articles in aviation journals and magazines.

SUMMARY:Extreme Cold\, Hypoxia\, and Other Challenges of Flight at High Altitudes
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\nMost GA pilots fly piston airplanes that cruise at lower altitudes\, but what is different about flying higher\, at 15\,000’ or 20\,000’ or higher? What should be known about human bodies and aircraft at these higher altitudes? \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites Alan Marcum\, an instrument-rated pilot to discuss flying in the flight levels. In this seminar\, we will learn about the advantages and disadvantages of flying high and the associated impacts on physiology\, air pressure and density\, weather\, emergency planning\, oxygen equipment\, flight planning\, and more. Many think of the flight levels as an escape from the weather below\, but often that is not the case. Some challenges that come from extreme altitudes are ones you have never had to consider at low altitude. \nThis is a great opportunity to expand your current knowledge to greater heights. Join us to learn more. \n \n\n\nAlan Marcum\, an instrument-rated private pilot\, has been flying for over forty years with 2\,500 flight hours with hundreds of them flown above 20\,000’ in unpressurized singles. Alan has delivered numerous FAA Safety Seminars on topics such as flying across the US\, flying at higher altitudes\, in-flight weather-based decision-making\, and PIREPs. He has flown in places ranging from Cambridge\, U.K. to Lihue\, Hawai’i\, and in airplanes from a Tiger Moth and a Waco to a Malibu and a Mooney. He bases his Mooney at Palo Alto\, where he learned to fly. Alan is a computer scientist by profession. \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:Self-Managing Your Airplane
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\n\nFlying an airplane is fun\, but what about managing it? Some aircraft owners choose to have professional managers for their aircraft\, but what does that really mean? Managing your aircraft requires an entirely unique skill set\, many of which pilots may not realize actually improve their flying abilities. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites Commercial Pilot Nick Williams to investigate aircraft management. In this seminar\, Nick will share how working with several large aircraft management firms has given him the knowledge to better operate and manage the aircraft he flies. For those who have never managed an aircraft before\, it could be surprising how many intricacies and nuances have gone unnoticed over the years. This seminar will detail some concepts and strategies across ownership structure\, financial accounting\, maintaining\, operating\, and\, of course\, piloting your own aircraft. To conclude\, he will share how his experience of operating and managing larger aircraft has helped him become a better pilot both inside and outside the flight deck. \nEven if you are not an owner\, this seminar will equip you with the knowledge needed to better understand the aircraft you operate. If you are an owner\, join us to learn industry best practices and apply them to your everyday flying.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nNick Williams is an SCFC member and commercial pilot. He manages and flies an Embraer Phenom 100 on a part-time basis\, and spends the rest of his professional time working or investing in small real estate and hospitality businesses. He lives in Noe Valley with his wife and dogs and loves having his Cessna 152 on the flight line. \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:Ground School Refresher: Pressure and Density Altitude
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\nPressure what? Density what? \nAs pilots\, we love altitude. So much that we’ve created a bunch of different kinds of altitude: true altitude\, absolute altitude\, indicated altitude\, assigned altitude\, and two kinds of confusing ones – pressure altitude and density altitude. For many pilots\, this can lead to a mental overload. Many pilots don’t have a working understanding of pressure and density altitude. Are they even real altitudes at all? \nIn this seminar\, join SCFC CFI Shelby Rebholtz as he introduces and explains the terms “pressure altitude” and “density altitude” and demystifies their meaning. Although the word “altitude” is used\, these are clearly not measures of altitude. In fact\, they are measures of atmospheric pressure and density just converted into units that pilots can understand. Confusing at first\, yes\, but once understood they serve a valuable purpose in determining aircraft performance. \nAlthough few things are as important to a pilot as knowing the performance capability of the aircraft before taking to the skies\, measuring the critical factor – atmospheric density – is not something that pilots can do directly. Instead we use rules of thumb\, conversion factors\, and our best understanding of how elevation\, pressure\, temperature\, and humidity are interrelated. If you’ve ever opened your aircraft POH to the performance section and felt humbled\, this seminar is for you. \n \n\n\nShelby Rebholtz is a CFI at San Carlos Flight Center. He was born and raised in the Bay Area and his passion for aviation started young when his father took him flying. While attending California State University\, Chico in 2019 he attained a degree in geography and his private pilots license. Soon after he continued his aviation journey down south to San Diego where he navigated the complex airspace of Southern California and attained his Commercial and CFI ratings. When Shelby is not flying or breaking his neck staring at aircraft he can be found mountain biking around the bay area or snowboarding\, fishing and hiking in the Sierras. \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:Beyond the POH\, Cessna 172 Systems Revealed
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\nAn aircraft’s Pilot Operating Handbook (POH) contains all the required information for pilots to operate an aircraft safely. Here you will find the operating limitations\, aircraft information\, and an overview of the systems. Having an understanding of how your aircraft operates is critical. The POH offers a wealth of data that pilots can use to fully understand their aircraft\, yet\, they often do not take advantage of it. \nTo develop this understanding we will further investigate the systems in a Cessna 172. San Carlos Flight Center invites Herb Patten\, Chief Pilot to go beyond the information in the POH. In this seminar\, he will highlight details of the inner workings of the induction\, oil\, electrical\, and fuel system as applied in the real world. For example\, have you ever wondered how the alternate air works in the Cessna 172? Or what triggers the “OIL PRESS” annunciator? Through a combination of diagrams\, pictures\, and videos\, Herb will demystify how the various systems are implemented. \nIf you ever wanted the answer to the question of “How does that work?”\, this seminar will provide answers to many of those questions and provide a framework to fully understand any airplane you fly. \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. 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.
