TEN STEPS TO SAFER SOARING

Phase of Flight 4 In-flight10% 4 Takeoff20% 4 Landing70%

In-flight 4 Mid-air Collision 4 Mechanical (Structural)

Takeoff 4 Improper Configuration Spoilers Canopy Mechanical (Assembly) 4 Low Altitude Emergency (PT3) 4 Hit Obstruction 4 Loss of Control

Landing 4 Land Short 4 Hit Obstruction 4 Loss of Control (Stall / Spin) 4 Mid-air Collision

1. Maintain Personal Proficiency 4 Current Being up to date or occurring within a recent period of time. 4 Proficient The ability to perform a skill with expert correctness.

Personal Proficiency 4 Legal vs. Safe Being legally current to act as Pilot in Command does not necessarily imply the level or proficiency needed to do so.

2. Use Checklists Effectively 4 Assembly Flight Control Operational Check Wing Pin(s) Flight Control Hook-ups Horizontal Stabilizer

Checklist Usage 4 Pre-takeoff Canopy Spoilers Flight Control Continuity and Operation 4 Landing

3. Properly Prepare for Each Flight FAR “Each pilot in command shall, before beginning a flight, become familiar with all available information concerning that flight.”

Pre-flight Preparation Inadequate Pre-flight Preparation The most common Frequent Cause Factor of General Aviation Accidents Involve the Pilot in Command

Pre-flight Preparation 4 Weather 4 Weight & Balance 4 Flight Planning 4 Pre-flight Inspection 4 Pilot

4. Conduct Positive Control Checks Frequently The Positive Control Check is not just for post-assembly anymore!

Critical Assembly Check 4 Wing Spar Pins 4 Horizontal Stabilizer 4 Flight Control Hook-ups 4 Flight Control Operational Check

5.Know the Standard American Soaring Signals 4 Briefings Tow Pilot Ground Crewmembers 4 Emergency Plan Pre-takeoff Review

6. Always Plan for Emergencies 4 Add “E” for Emergency Plan to every Before Takeoff Checklist 4 Fly the Glider !

7. Maintain Situational Awareness 4 Unanticipated Sink 4 Increased Wind Velocities 4 Misjudgments of Altitude 4 Traffic

Situational Awareness Pilots must develop and maintain an awareness of meteorological conditions or other circumstances that may affect the altitude required to safety complete the landing approach.

8. Use Effective Collision Avoidance Techniques 4 VFR Weather 4 Below 3,000 AGL 4 Within 10 Miles of a Non-tower Airport

Mid-air Collisions 4 A pilot’s greatest exposure to a mid-air collision is on the final approach to a non- tower airport.

9. Eliminate Obstructions in Close Proximity to the Runway 4 Gliders 4 Ground Tow Vehicles 4 Automobiles 4 Tow Planes 4 Spectators

10. Make Safety the Primary Goal in all Decision-making “ A superior pilot uses superior judgment to avoid stressful situations which might call for the use of superior skills.”
