In Case You Missed It!
Must-Watch: 56 Seconds to Live!

Can you imagine being in a situation where you only had 56 seconds to live? If you are a low-altitude pilot and find yourself in Unintentional Instrument Meteorological Conditions (UIMC), those precious 56 seconds could be a reality. The U.S. Helicopter Safety Team created a gripping video that highlights the pitfalls of succumbing to pressure and going against your better judgment. Watch it to see just how rapidly a pilot can lose control of their aircraft when attempting to continue a Visual Flight Rules flight into Instrument Meteorological Conditions when not qualified and what the fatal repercussions can be for the pilot and his loved ones. The video is directed at helicopter pilots, but the message is applicable to all low-altitude VFR pilots. It’s a must-watch!
