When Landing on One Wheel IS Acceptable!
A perfectly executed crosswind landing is a step-by-step process, but the steps happen in a short amount of time. Learn the steps here, and sharpen your skills in the simulator.

I‘ve always been amazed at how overly complicated people can make crosswind landings seem. While they certainly are one of the more challenging items to master, when it comes to learning to fly, they really aren’t all that complicated.
When learning how to fly, students are generally taught new tasks by simply memorizing procedures. This is a great way to introduce a new concept to the student, but if they don’t eventually understand what is fully happening, they wont be able to cope with any abnormalities that will eventually, and inevitably occur.
Many of you have heard about the upcoming JetSet Training from Angle of Attack. Well, we’ve finally announced what it is all about. And now it’s time to choose exactly what you want to learn.
We’re ready to tell you about JetSet. Here you’ll learn what our plans are and how to get signed up!
There has been a lot of buzz going around the flight sim community the last several weeks regarding Microsoft’s new simulator; Flight. Here’s a hot new video showing it off.
As pilots and aviators, we have to face the facts: 1. Accidents to happen 2. Most of the time it’s the pilot’s fault 3. Mortality rate in aviation accidents is not that great.
Some believe there is a right and wrong way to fly. Flying isn’t about doing things exactly right, it’s about making decisions ‘on-the-fly’. Do you know what it takes to make great decisions, or are you stuck in the trap of trying to be perfect all the time?
Learn some simple things that I think define a good, a band, and an ugly landing. These simple steps are humorous but true.
In our every day lives and skills that we have in something other than aviation, we can actually use those things to build our skills as virtual aviators. In this post I talk about how being a drummer and a driver can help you improve those skills.
