But all too often, complacency and over-confidence cause even highly experienced pilots to rush through the preflight process or skip items on their checklists altogether. For years, inadequate preflight preparation has been cited as a top contributing factor in many general aviation […]

In fact, WWI pilots had a higher chance of being killed during training than in the heroic combat dogfights we’ve seen portrayed in movies. Yet, despite the odds, young American men volunteered in droves to become […]

Ideally, student pilots should enroll in a formal ground school course to learn the fundamentals of flying. However, with enough discipline and time, students can also learn through a self-study method. Fortunately, today’s student pilots have dozens of resources and training tools at […]

From the early days of manned flight, pilots used training tools to simulate the experience of flight from the safety of the ground. Long before the invention of realistic computer simulators or even virtual reality training, flight simulation involved experimental […]
