Let's review ten common ways pilots get themselves in trouble and systematically discuss what we can do to mitigate each of those risks.
This seminar will make you think, it will make you humble, it will make you modest. CFI Philip Mandel learned his lessons the hard way - sweating fuel, getting caught in weather, losing power at 300 AGL. He will share from his experience so you don't have to make the same mistakes yourself!
Philip Mandel CFI-I, MEI is a veteran flight instructor as well as the proud owner of a Thorp T-18, which is his tenth airplane — he's owned everything from a Cessna 150 to a Piper Apache.

Aaron Dabney earned his Flight Instructor certificate in 2009, and has been an active instructor ever since. He has provided more than 5,000 hours of instruction in more than 30 models of aircraft, mentoring pilots from their first hour through becoming accomplished instructors themselves, and all points in between.
Dabney grew up in an aviation family. His maternal grandfather Joe was a World War II fighter pilot, and much of his childhood was spent in the family J-3 Cub with his grandfather or his uncle Mark. Aaron completed his first solo in that Cub in 1999 and is now its caretaker.
Aaron is a 6-time NAFI Master Flight Instructor, owns a small flight school, and has served as an adjunct lecturer for Baylor University's Aviation Sciences program since 2010. He serves on NAFI's Board of Directors and serves in several volunteer roles including coordinating MentorLIVE
