A pilot license allows us to take to the sky and explore new horizons in the literal sense of the term. There are many trips a flights that we want to take but many pilots feel overwhelmed, unsure or uncomfortable at the thought of flying somewhere that they haven gone before. Be it terrain, airspace or just the thought of doing something new it is important that we do our part to make pilots feel more comfortable and prepared to experience these new flights and destinations.
It is with this in mind that BCGA members Augie Rinz & Bruce Burley suggested that we begin creating and collecting a series of trip sheets that give pilots the relevant information to de-mystify these flights that to some may seem daunting.
BCGA Members now have the ability to access and contribute to a library of trip sheets that with a little help from everyone will grow into a valuable resource for our community and enable pilots of all experience levels to feel comfortable trying out new destinations and flights. The success of this resource relies on you the members contributing your knowledge and expertise.
BCGA Trip Sheets are located in the MEMBERS tab of the BCGA website and accessible to registered members. |
