After updates from Steve, a review of stalls in the pattern, and the effects of bank angle, CG, configuration, and weight. Then a relevant video review of an recent accident in December 2021 from ASI.
December 2021 Safety Meeting Video
Unfortunately, no spiral ham or other yummy treats this year. Hopefully we’ll be able to resume that next year.
In the meantime, please find the video below with some thoughts from Steve, then Nate shares some thoughts from our awesome mechanics, and shares an experience hopefully all can learn from.
Apologies for the video/audio being out of sync and the audio choppiness, the video segments with Steve were unfortunately corrupted before I could assemble it all for publishing.
