Parachutes and Pilots
Andy Goodall’s seminar aims to raise awareness of safety onboard the aircraft and identify common accident trends thus improving pilot survivability and overall safety during flight.
The seminar will be of interest to skydivers and pilots and will provide skydivers with a better understanding of the problems that pilots may encounter during flight, and to help pilots better understand the nature of skydivers and to raise awareness of accident trends and statistics of inflight accidents worldwide.
Highlighting the Importance of a Safety first culture Andy will also discuss real-time, Emergency pilot parachute saves.
