341 N1089W Bonanza Takeoff Crash at KISP, Long Island MacArthur Airport
In this special episode of Aviation News Talk, Max discusses a recent fatal crash involving N1089W, a Beechcraft A36 Bonanza, at MacArthur Airport in Long Island. The aircraft lost power shortly after takeoff, leading the pilot to attempt a 180-degree turn back to the runway, a maneuver often referred to as the "impossible turn." The plane crashed short of Runway 6, resulting in the deaths of both the pilot and passenger. Max explains the dangers of the "impossible turn," especially for faster aircraft like the Bonanza, due to their larger turn radius. He suggests that using the full length of the runway, rather than an intersection departure, might have provided the pilot with more options for an emergency landing. He emphasizes the importance of thorough preparation, including identifying suitable landing spots and conducting pre-takeoff briefings. He also advises pilots to use the full runway length whenever possible and to be cautious and prepared for emergencies.

339 Skyryse Revolutionizes Helicopter Controls with Single Stick in Robinson R66 + GA News
In this episode, Max visits Skyryse, a Southern California-based startup. Its Skyryse One helicopter, has a revolutionary cockpit configuration that eliminates traditional controls such as the cyclic, collective, and pedals. Instead, it features a single centrally mounted control stick and two touchscreen displays, all powered by a triply redundant fly-by-wire flight control system and the company's proprietary SkyOS. The Skyryse One is half the cost of the cheapest IFR-certified helicopters, significantly enhancing safety in the helicopter industry. The aircraft is priced at $1.8 million, higher than the standard Robinson R66 that its based upon, but Skyryse believes the increased safety and capability will justify the premium cost for private pilots and commercial operators. The company aims to certify the Skyryse One by 2025 and it plans to offer the system in other helicopters and fixed wing aircraft. The podcast includes a detailed discussion and demonstration of the Skyryse simulator, highlighting the intuitive controls and dynamic flight protection features that make flying easier and safer.

337 Yeti Airlines flight 691 crash – Human Factors for General Aviation Pilots
Max discusses the critical role of human factors in aviation safety, prompted by the tragic crash of Yeti Airlines flight 691 in Nepal in 2023. The flight crashed during a visual approach due to pilot errors and high workload, resulting in the loss of all 72 people on board. Trescott explains how human factors like high workload, distractions, and ineffective Crew Resource Management (CRM) played a critical role in the accident. The crew's use of noise-canceling headsets and the challenging new airport approach added to their workload, leading to mistakes. Trescott uses the SHELL model (Software, Hardware, Environment, Liveware) to analyze the accident, emphasizing how the interaction of these elements can lead to errors. He discusses the effects of high workload on pilot performance, including attentional narrowing and task shedding, and offers strategies to manage it, such as starting descent planning earlier and effective CRM practices. Recognizing high workload is crucial, but pilots often don't notice it in real-time, necessitating proactive measures and specific training. Trescott concludes by highlighting the dangers of overconfidence and complacency, even among experienced pilots, and stresses the importance of developing strategies to catch and correct mistakes to enhance flight safety.

336 Cirrus SR22T CAPS Parachute Pull over Seattle with Jim Simon + GA News
Max talks with CFI Jim Simon, about an incident involving a Cirrus SR22T and a parachute deployment. During a routine flight, the engine of their aircraft suddenly seized, resulting in a complete loss of power. Jim, who was flying with a learner, took control and performed emergency procedures. He opted not to land on a congested highway or in water, instead aiming for a greenbelt area. At 1,500 feet MSL, he pulled the aircraft's parachute, experiencing a violent but controlled descent. They narrowly avoided power lines and landed softly in a marshy area. Both occupants exited the aircraft unharmed. Jim emphasized the importance of training and preparation for such emergencies. He credited their survival to the Cirrus Aircraft Parachute System (CAPS) and noted that without it, a safe landing in such a dense urban area would have been nearly impossible. The incident underscored the value of safety features like CAPS and the need for pilots to be thoroughly trained in emergency procedures.

334 Making Flight Training Safer – Tips for CFIs and Pilots with John Fiscus + GA News
Max talks with John Fiscus discuss about strategies for flight instructors when teaching in the traffic pattern. These tips are also useful for pilots flying by themselves. John highlights a common issue among new CFIs: teaching based on qualitative feelings rather than quantitative data. He emphasizes the importance of providing concrete numerical guidance to students. John introduces the concept that "energy equals time," stressing that the amount of energy (airspeed, power, altitude) affects reaction time, especially as the aircraft gets closer to the ground. He also talks about the need for CFIs to balance allowing student mistakes with ensuring safety. John describes the different roles of an instructor: teacher, coach, and evaluator, and the importance of setting specific error tolerances at various traffic pattern stages. They also discuss practical techniques for being ready to take over controls without alarming students. John also talks about the ever tightening tolerances he permits around the traffic pattern, before he steps in to intervene. Both Max and John emphasize continuous learning for CFIs, adapting teaching methods based on new insights, and fostering student independence while maintaining safety.

333 FAA Compliance Program – What You Need to Know with Mark Kolber + GA News
Max talks with Mark Kolber, an aviation lawyer and CFI, about the FAA's compliance program. Mark explains that the program, launched in 2015, shifted from a punitive approach to a more rehabilitative one, encouraging pilots to report mistakes and undergo retraining rather than facing severe penalties. He highlights the benefits of being proactive and transparent with the FAA to resolve issues through remedial training. Mark discusses the importance of filing a NASA form for protections if a case goes to formal enforcement and advises seeking professional guidance when contacted by the FAA. He clarifies that while the compliance program handles minor infractions, serious violations like fraud or repeated offenses still lead to formal enforcement actions. The conversation includes practical advice for pilots who receive a Brasher warning, suggesting they contact the tower with brief, factual information without making admissions. Mark emphasizes that modern technology like ADS-B makes evading detection impossible, advocating for cooperation and transparency as the best approaches.

332 FAA Reauthorization Effects on Training and DPEs with Jason Blair and Friday Mailbag Special
Max interviews Jason Blair about the FAA reauthorization bill and its implications for flight training and pilot certification. And Max reads listener stories and emails. Jason highlights a significant change allowing non-collegiate programs to qualify for restricted ATP certificates through enhanced qualification programs developed by airlines or FAA-approved training centers. This opens new pathways for aspiring pilots outside traditional collegiate programs. He also discusses the bill's focus on workforce development, including a GAO study on the pilot shortage and provisions to streamline the process for pilots training in experimental or limited category aircraft. Notably, the bill includes measures to improve the deployment and standardization of Designated Pilot Examiners (DPEs), such as creating a national oversight office and developing tools to better manage examiner availability and scheduling. Additionally, Jason mentions the upcoming removal of expiration dates from flight instructor certificates, aiming to reduce administrative burdens while still requiring instructors to maintain currency.

331 New ACS Changes and How They’ll Affect Your Next Checkride – Jason Blair + GA News
Max and Jason Blair discuss recent changes in the FAA's aviation testing standards, notably the transition from PTS to ACS. Key updates include the conversion of the CFI test to ACS, introducing scenario-driven evaluations. New maneuvers, such as demonstrating flight characteristics under various conditions, have been added for CFIs. Instructors can now use pre-developed lesson plans, easing the preparation burden. Instrument rating changes allow using approaches with decision altitudes like LNAV/VNAV and mandate partial panel approaches to reflect real emergency scenarios. GPS databases must remain current. For commercial pilots, precision in power-off 180-degree landings is emphasized, and understanding ballistic parachute systems is required. These updates aim to modernize testing, aligning it with current industry practices and technology without drastically altering training content. The use of electronic flight bags (EFB) for planning and in-flight operations is now permitted, enhancing practicality. Jason assures that these changes will improve the evaluation process while maintaining consistency with previous standards, providing a seamless transition for candidates.

329 FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 and How It Impacts GA Pilots
In this episode, Max discusses the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 and the dozens of provisions that may impact GA pilots. Here's are a few of the many points covered: Pilots using BasicMed can fly larger and more capable aircraft, and DPEs can fly under BasicMed. CFI certificates will no longer expire, though CFIs will have to meet recent experience requirements. The FAA has to reduce the aircraft registration backlog and shorten the time to respond to Part 135 carrier applications. The FAA must accelerate remote tower implementation at three airports by December 2024.  If you're getting value from this show, please support the show via PayPal, Venmo, Zelle or Patreon.

328 Buying a Plane and Crashing on Way Home - N8924Y Piper Twin Comanche

328 Buying a Plane and Crashing on Way Home - N8924Y Piper Twin Comanche
Max explores a tragic aviation accident involving the crash of a N8924Y, a Piper Twin Comanche shortly after its new owner purchased it. The pilot was flying the aircraft home when he encountered various challenges, including fatigue, pressure to return home quickly, and low experience in the specific aircraft model. The episode delves into the circumstances surrounding the crash, highlighting common factors seen in similar accidents. The pilot attempted to troubleshoot the landing gear problem while hand-flying the aircraft in dark night conditions. Ultimately, the crash was attributed to the pilot exceeding the aircraft's critical angle of attack while troubleshooting the landing gear indication, resulting in an aerodynamic stall at low altitude. The episode serves as a sobering reminder of the importance of safety, decision-making, and preparedness in aviation. It honors the memory of Rob Prestininzi and underscores the need for pilots to prioritize safety over external pressures.

327 N84R Beech A36 Crash in KY – Pilot Breaks multiple FAA Rules + GA News

327 N84R Beech A36 Crash in KY – Pilot Breaks multiple FAA Rules + GA News
Max discusses a tragic accident involved a 55-year-old physician who crashed his Beech A36 aircraft, N84R, at Tucker Guthrie Memorial Airport in Harlan, Kentucky, on November 3, 2022. The pilot departed from Knoxville at around 9:32 a.m. with the purpose of attending scheduled appointments at a medical office near the destination airport. Despite low instrument flight conditions at the time of arrival, the pilot did not file a flight plan, communicate with ATC, or receive a weather briefing before departure. Upon arrival in the airport area, he announced over the CTAF his intention to circle for landing. However, subsequent flight track data revealed that the airplane completed a total of three approaches to the runway, none of which were consistent with the published instrument approach procedure, and all were conducted in low instrument flight conditions.

326 How to Get a Job Towing Gliders – Interview Jason Stephens + GA News
Max talks with Arizona Soaring President and Chief Flight Instructor Jason Stephens and eight time Nation glider aerobatic champion about what it takes to become a glider towplane pilot. Surprisingly, you can tow gliders with just a Private certificate, though most operators will probably want their prospective tow pilots to have a commercial rating. Most new tow pilots will  probably be required to have at least a couple hundred hours of total experience. And since most tow planes are taildraggers, they’ll also need a taildragger endorsement.

324 13 Ways to build flight time with Rob Mark - Part 2 + GA News
Max talks with Rob Mark about thirteen different ways a pilot can build flight time. These jobs may be attractive to weekend pilots who are looking for a fun flying activity, or for pilots who are looking to reach the 1500 hours required for an ATP and an airline job. This is Part 2 of a two episode series. In Part 2, we discuss Part 91 and Corporate flying, Air tours, Banner towing, time building programs, glider towing, working as a CFI, and flying a personal airplane. We also discuss the illegal P-51time, which has nothing to do with warbirds. And I want to mention one other resource for pilots who are looking for low time pilot jobs.  I mentioned the Road to 1500 website where you can learn about a lot of these jobs. And just a couple of weeks ago, Ivan Rabarison, who runs that website, began offering what he calls the Ultimate Low Time Pilot Jobs Database, which sells for  $29.99. I haven’t seen it, but apparently it includes minimum hour requirements to apply, location, website, contact information and in some case information about pay, work schedules and more. So it sounds like a fairly efficient to help find these jobs. To get the website, just Google The Road to 1500, and of course I will also have a link to it in the show notes.

322 N960LP TBM 960 Truckee crash; Robinson helicopter factory tour + GA News + GA News
Max talks about the details of the crash of a TBM 960, N960LP, at Truckee, California last weekend. He also talks in detail about his factory tour last week of Robinson Helicopter. Weather at the time the pilot flew the approach was ½ mile visibility and snow with clouds scattered at 300 feet and overcast at 700 feet. However the approach minimums were 1 mile visibility and the MDA is 582 feet AGL. The pilot flew the instrument approach more or less successfully, though he descended more than 200 feet below the minimums, and he started his turn for the missed approach 1.3 miles beyond the missed approach point. While he flew the approach with the autopilot, he flew the missed approach by hand, and lost control.
