SUMMARY:California Volcano Hunting
DESCRIPTION:When people think of volcanoes in the United States\, most people think of places like Hawaii or the Pacific Northwest. However\, did you know that California has a few volcanoes scattered across the state? \nWith towering peaks\, the formidable Mt. Shasta and Mt. Lassen both lie at the northern tip of the state and are viewable from hundreds of miles away. These volcanoes are easily viewed from both the air or you can fly to Weed Airport (O46) or Rogers Field (O05) to see Mt. Shasta and Mt. Lassen from the ground\, respectively. \nCalifornia also has a handful of other volcanic sites in the northern\, eastern\, and southern parts of the state. While not as tall and imposing as the volcanoes listed above\, some do pose a threat and have erupted in the last few thousand years. They are also in some very beautiful areas of the state\, so plan a flight and revel in the scenic sights below. \nYour mission for June is to fly to one or multiple of any volcanic sites and get a picture of them. If you would like\, please share them with FOG at flyoutgroup@gmail.com and we’ll showcase the best images in our July newsletter. To get started volcano hunting\, a good starting point is a description of volcanic hot spots from the USGS\, which is available here.

SUMMARY:FOG Lunch: Merced
DESCRIPTION:Summer’s here\, and to celebrate\, treat yourself to a cross-country flight to grab some BBQ at the Merced Airport (MCE). Located just west of Merced\, the airport has an almost 6000-foot runway with multiple instrument approaches\, as well as a full-service FBO. This is a great opportunity to get a cross-country flight in while also knocking out some approaches for your IFR currency. \nHangar BBQ is located on the east side of the field near the terminal building. They serve BBQ-style dishes and are known for their delicious Tri-Tip that is cooked in their smoker that day. They also have other California/BBQ fusion\, such as burgers and tacos. Their outdoor seating is great at lunchtime\, and they have heaters for cooler nights on their patio. This is a nice venue to enjoy some great food while staying safe. \nAs always\, please confirm with Hangar BBQ that they are open for dining with the current COVID-19 restrictions. You are welcome to fly in with other pilots\, but FOG is holding off on large group gatherings for this month in order to comply with the state and county health guidelines. \nTo learn more about Hangar BBQ\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Airport of the Month: Santa Maria
DESCRIPTION:June’s Airport of the Month is Santa Maria (SMX)\, which is a convenient stop on the way to the LA Basin. This busy Class Delta airport has multiple runways\, scheduled airline services\, and even a hotel that you can taxi up to! For students and pilots working on a long cross-country trip\, the flight down is gorgeous\, as one follows the coast or Salinas Valley to Santa Maria. For those without a GPS\, the local Guadalupe VOR sits a few miles west of the field. \nWith Central Coast Air Center providing full FBO services\, this is a great place to refuel and rest before continuing your journey. Pilots can take advantage of the Santa Maria Museum of Flight\, which houses unique aircraft and is open Friday through Sunday. The region is also popular with wine tastings\, and the airport hotel is located on the field\, allowing for an easy departure the next morning after a weekend of vineyard excursions. \nSanta Maria is a great airport to practice instrument approaches\, with an ILS\, VOR\, GPS\, and a back-course localizer approach. The coastal fog is often present in the morning throughout summer\, so instrument-rated pilots hoping to stay current will enjoy the low layer to hone their skills. \nIf you fly to Santa Maria this month\, let FOG know how it is! Please email flyoutgroup@gmail.com with any PIREPs and insights.

SUMMARY:Flying the Bay Tour
DESCRIPTION:Due to the COVID-19 public health crisis\, 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\n\n\n\nFlying in the San Francisco Bay area is spectacular\, a real privilege for local pilots. The Pacific Ocean\, a dramatic coastline\, beautiful hills\, and many famous landmarks. As pilots\, we are afforded a rare bird’s eye view that we long to share with our friends and family. \nSo what exactly is a “Bay Tour”?  How did certain airspace changes affect the Bay Tour\, and what new implementations will require pilots need to take to account? Join CFI Lukasz Zoromski to examine the airspace\, explain the “Bay Tour” and how a pilot can accomplish one in the safest\, simplest\, most enjoyable manner. \nWe’ll review the various overlapping airspaces in the area\, the territories for each local ATC facility\, and the routings most commonly used by Flight Center pilots and suggested by ATC.  You’ll learn what options are available to you even if SQL ATIS has the phrase “San Francisco is not taking surface area transitions.” \nIf you are new to the Bay area\, want to imagine the different sights you’ll see\, or just want to improve your understanding of local airspace customs and procedures\, please join us for this popular seminar.\n\n\n  \nLukasz Zoromski has always been interested in aviation. Ever since going to Oshkosh Airventure as a kid\, he got hooked on airplanes. After graduating from the University of Wisconsin\, he decided to make a career change away from a desk job and began flying with a goal to become a flight instructor. Now that he has achieved that goal\, he strives to help new pilots achieve the same goals in a safe and fun way. New to the Bay Area\, he is looking forward to flying in a new environment and meeting new people.\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 2019 as a Distinguished Flight School. \nSCFC is committed to promoting safety in general aviation through our regular safety seminars and guest speaker programs. Space is often limited so it is important to sign up early. SCFC members may choose to watch the seminar live over the web at home\, or recorded at a later date. Click here or contact a SCFC member service rep at (650) 946-1700 for more information about online access. \n

SUMMARY:Calculating Performance in the Age of Tech
DESCRIPTION:Due to the COVID-19 public health crisis\, 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\nIs it safe to take off from Truckee with a full load on a hot summer day? Can I make it to Scottsdale with enough fuel reserve? If there is a tailwind in the downslope direction\, should I take off upslope or downslope? Can I meet the climb gradient requirement for an instrument departure in the current conditions? All these questions can be answered with the airplane POH\, and more and more with the help of modern aircraft performance apps. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites Steven Kleiman to demonstrate how to effectively use an app to easily calculate aircraft performance values. Steven is the founder of POH Performance which provides open-source performance calculations for Beech Barons\, Bonanzas\, Cessna 172s and 182s\, Piper PA28\, Daher Kodiaks and TBMs. In this seminar Steven will highlight how technology has provided extreme accuracy in calculating aircraft performance in various different situations. Steven will demonstrate\, step by step\, how to calculate performance values for all phases of flight. \nJoin us and learn how to obtain more precise and accurate performance values for your aircraft.\n\n\n  \nSteve Kleiman is a 1600+ hour instrument rated pilot and primary author of the POH Performance apps.

SUMMARY:Maintenance Logbooks
DESCRIPTION:Due to the COVID-19 public health crisis\, 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\nAircraft records are significant for safety and legal reasons.  Maintenance and inspections are meticulously recorded in more aircraft logbooks\, such as airframe\, engine\, propeller\, and sometimes avionics.  Pilots need to understand the details of aircraft logbook entries to validate the airworthiness of the airplane before flight\, especially after the plane has returned from servicing. \nPreparing for a checkride is one instance where the pilot-in-command needs to know every piece of the aircraft’s airworthiness.  When was the last annual inspection?  If 100-hour inspections are required\, when was the last 100 hour inspection done?  Has the work been logged appropriately in the maintenance records.  Are all the airworthiness directives complied with?  Being able to read and interpret maintenance logbook entries is the only way to confirm the aircraft is airworthy.. \nIn this seminar\, San Carlos Flight Center Chief Pilot Herb Patten will examine the aircraft maintenance logbook entries and highlight what you need to pay attention to as a PIC.  We encourage any pilot to attend.\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 1\,500 hours into at least 120 different California airports.  He is the current chairman of the Upwind Foundation\, famous for its Upwind Summer Scholarship Program. In 2015\, Herb was named a Master Instructor by the National Association of Flight Instructors.\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:An Insight into Airport Operations at San Carlos
DESCRIPTION:Due to the COVID-19 public health crisis\, 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“Ops 1\, Ground…” is a radio call heard every now and then at a towered airport like San Carlos. From conducting runway sweeps\, to chasing geese away\, from fixing taxiway lights\, to assisting distressed aircraft\, the Airport Operations team plays a fundamental part keeping the airport running smoothly and safely. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites Airport Operations Specialist Michael Dutton to give a behind-the-scenes view on what it takes to keep an airport like San Carlos running. This seminar will cover the routine checks that make up the day-to-day lives of the specialists\, as well as some of the more special occurrences that operations specialists respond to. We’ll examine the training\, equipment\, and responsibilities given to the operations personnel\, along with investigating safety measures implemented to ensure the airport runs smoothly. \nWe encourage any pilot to attend as they can now be more vigilant while operating in and around the airport.\n\n\n  \nMichael Dutton is a commercial pilot with a private rating in helicopters. He’s been flying and working at the San Carlos airport for over seven years\, first working for the Flight Center before moving on to Airport Operations. In his off-days\, he’s still at the airport as he continues his flight training.\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 2019 as a Distinguished Flight School. \nSCFC is committed to promoting safety in general aviation through our regular safety seminars and guest speaker programs. Space is often limited so it is important to sign up early. SCFC members may choose to watch the seminar live over the web at home\, or recorded at a later date.

SUMMARY:IFR Departure Procedures
DESCRIPTION:Due to the COVID-19 public health crisis\, 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  \nBelieve it or not\, IFR departures can be one of the most challenging parts of an IFR flight. The process of getting safely from the surface over all surrounding obstacles and up into the safety of the enroute IFR structure\, all while operating at maximum performance configuration\, slower speeds\, and high pitch attitudes can be daunting.  The procedures for getting to altitude and established on a route can be accomplished in many different ways\, and airports have many different published departure procedures.  How do you know which one you should expect? \nIn this safety seminar\, CFI Brian Eliot will review a few of the instrument departure procedures for local Bay Area airports.  He will deconstruct the published procedures and show the most critical safety items\, as well as what to typically expect in common practice.  This program is a must for pilots working on their instrument rating\, or working to stay current with instrument departures. \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. He regularly presents at San Carlos Flight Center safety seminars and has a reputation for making complex concepts easy to learn and understand. \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.
