SUMMARY:Key West to California: Westbound Across America
DESCRIPTION:Most of us have only been on cross-country flights closer than 300 miles away from our home airport. Only a few of us venture to fly even longer distances. Flying gives us the freedom to go anywhere when we deem its safe\, and for one pilot he chose to make the stretch across America. \nDave Kramer\, a commercial pilot\, gained significant experience from his 32 day\, solo trip across America. Throughout his flight\, he gained many nuggets of knowledge. In this continuation seminar\, he will share some of his key learnings that you can use to improve the safety of your flights. Cross-country planning for a single flight is challenging but imagine the undertaking for planning an actual “cross-country” flight. The constantly changing weather patterns over America\, small airports\, unexpected delays\, and other challenges is what you could expect on a cross-country trip across the country. Join us to hear about his flight back from Key West to California\, along with many challenges he faced. \nYou surely won’t want to miss this seminar if you are planning to go on a long cross-country trip\, improve your flight planning\, or you just want to learn more about the adventures of a fellow pilot. \nDave Kramer MD\, an ophthalmologist for over 30 years\, is an instrument rated\, tailwheel\, complex and high performance endorsed commercial SEL pilot as well as a basic and instrument ground instructor with an interest in weather. He has been flying since 2012\, has over 1100 hours of which over 500 have been in the IFR system. He also enjoys long cross country flying\, night flying and flying in the LA area. \nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation thought safety\, community\, and adventure. AOPA has consistently recognized SCFC in their Best Flight School survey\, most recently in 2018 as the best flight school in the West. \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. Contact a SCFC member service rep at (650) 946-1700 for more information about online access.

SUMMARY:My 172 May Help Me Survive
DESCRIPTION:If disaster strikes\, you might be forced to land the airplane in the middle of nowhere. What happens next? You try to call for help\, but nothing shows up. It’s getting cold outside as night falls\, how can we take advantage of the remaining pieces of my damaged aircraft beside me? Taking apart your Cessna 172 may sound insane\, but it could save your life. \nSan Carlos Flight Center invites Michael Dutton a Private Pilot and survival expert on how to handle an emergency landing\, and how to deal with the NTSB afterwards. However\, what about the step in between? Let’s say you’ve made it through the crash safely\, but now you have to survive long enough for rescuers to find you. A packed survival kit will vastly improve your chances\, but there is another great resource available to all pilots: the aircraft itself. From the avionics on board to the structural components themselves\, the plane you flew in on can be lifesaving. \nThis is open to all pilots who are wanting a more unique take on survival operations\, and how to take advantage of everything you have. If you want to stay safe on all your future trips\, you won’t want to miss this seminar. \nMichael Dutton is a Private Pilot\, rated in both helicopter and fixed wing aircraft\, with over two hundred hours. He is also an Eagle Scout from Troop 132 and has spent years as a first aid and survival instructor. When he isn’t flying or working\, he still goes camping with his friends from his old Troop. \nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation thought safety\, community\, and adventure. AOPA has consistently recognized SCFC in their Best Flight School survey\, most recently in 2018 as the best flight school in the West. \nSCFC is committed to promoting safety in general aviation through our regular safety seminars and guest speaker programs.

SUMMARY:Gaining Confidence in Your Flight Training: The Use of Home Flight Simulators
DESCRIPTION:Most people are used to the idea of school-based flight simulators in flight training\, especially for an instrument rating. But there are many great reasons to take advantage of home-based flight simulators to build confidence and enhance your training. Flight simulators are easy to use\, extremely helpful\, and can cater to any situation. \nSCFC invites Brandan Dadoun a Student Pilot\, and John Lindstrom a Private Pilot\, who both have actively used flight simulators throughout their flying careers\, to share how it’s benefited them in becoming better pilots. In this seminar\, we will cover the vast amount of flight simulation applications that you can use at home; how to set it up; and how to get the most out of it. Flight simulation has been around for a long time and has proved extremely helpful for many aspiring to become a better pilot. Along with flight simulation being an excellent procedural trainer\, pilots can also practice their radio skills by talking with real Air Traffic Controllers. The possibilities are endless. \nIf you want to become a better pilot\, gain confidence\, and discover many new things that you might have never known; you do not want to miss this seminar. \n  \nBrandan Dadoun is a Student Pilot and SCFC’s Seminar Coordinator\, Brandan has completed the majority of his flight training at SCFC; with over 70 flight hours. He is an advocate for getting youth involved in aviation\, and is actively involved in many aviation programs. He is an active volunteer at the Hiller Aviation Museum\, and previously an active volunteer in the local EAA chapter. He is excited to teach people who are ready to learn. \nJohn Lindstorm is a Private Pilot with over 150 hours\, he holds a bachelor’s degree from Texas Tech University. John Lindstrom began working in California in software development since the early 1990s. Growing up in a Navy family\, he ran into quite a few pilots and realized that\, without exception\, they were all simply put\, “cool”. Before taking his discovery flight\, he would look upwards on clear days and just enjoy the scenery\, but since that day\, he couldn’t help but to be in the sky too. \n  \nSan Carlos Flight Center (SCFC) is the SF Bay Area’s most dynamic flying club\, committed to building general aviation thought 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.
