Description

Personal and private flights account for the largest percentage of helicopter accidents — despite making up just 3% of hours flown. So how can we fix this?Our guests today are Scott Tyrell — a former FAA accident investigator — and Arvid Albanese — a business owner and private pilot. As co-sponsors of the personal/private segment of the US Helicopter Safety Team, Scott and Arvid promote safety ideas for those pilots who might not have easy access to the learning resources other sectors of the industry do.In this conversation, Scott, Arvid and I will take a look behind the personal/private accident rate — why is it higher than other areas of the industry, and what philosophies can personal/private pilots apply to their flying to maximize safety?
