Go With the Flow 6:30 p.m. A Presentation by CFI John Dorcey Room 104A Fox Valley Tech College From AOPA Flight Training, an excerpt from an article by Robert Rossier on Flow Patterns: Aviation Campus “Dealing with emergencies is a problem the airline industry has grappled with for decades. One approach 3601 Oregon Street used by airlines to rapidly respond to emergencies, as well as conduct routine operating procedures, is the Oshkosh, Wisconsin use of flow patterns.

When a flow pattern is followed for an emergency procedure, the checklist is Tuesday, March 3 used on a time-permitting basis after the completion of the pattern to ensure that no steps or items were Details here omitted. Thus, the checklist is truly a checklist and not a do list. Using a flow pattern offers three distinct advantages. First, by following the pattern prescribed by the flow, a pilot is less likely to overlook or forget any step in the procedure. Second, a flow can be more easily and quickly learned than a written procedure. Finally, the flow can be completed very quickly since the pi- lot’s time isn’t divided between reading a checklist and performing tasks in the cockpit. In some emergencies, particularly when there is only one pilot, there simply isn’t enough time to get out the checklist and read it before the flight comes to an unscheduled end.

  • Wisconsin Aviation Hall of Fame Names 2018 Inductees MADISON, WI
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE A membership organization dedicated to preserving the past and fostering the future of flight. Wisconsin Aviation Hall of Fame Names 2018 Inductees MADISON, WI. June 8, 2018 – Four aviators will be inducted into the Wisconsin Aviation Hall of Fame on Saturday, October 20, 2018. Jerome LeBarron, Janis Sierra, Joshua Sanford, and Donald Winkler will be honored at the induction ceremony for their significant contributions to aviation in Wisconsin. Jerome LeBarron was raised in Osseo and started his aviation career in 1969 at age 20. He served in the U.S. Navy as an aircrew member with VW-1 and VQ-1, flying low-level typhoon penetrations and “other” reconnaissance throughout the western Pacific and Vietnam in the Lockheed L-1049 Constellation. Jerry attended UW-Eau Claire and worked for Gibson Aviation. In 1978 he graduated from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University and launched a 40-year career in aerospace, holding key leadership positions in Engineering, Program Management and Flight Test for Lockheed, North American Rockwell and Northrop Grumman. Jerry has been an active flight instructor since 1976, founding LeBarron Aviation at Burbank Airport, California, which specialized in advanced flight training. He is an aircraft owner currently living on the Waunakee Airport. Janis Sierra graduated from Brookfield High School in 1975 and planned to go into nursing. Money was an issue and like so like many before her she turned to the military. Janis was the fifteenth female to graduate from the Army’s helicopter pilot training program. She was the only female in her Fort Rucker, Alabama, flight school class graduating in 1975 as a Warrant Officer.
