E029 - Paul Craig, Author of "The Killing Zone"

We are unbelievably thrilled to be joined this week by Paul Craig, author of "The Killing Zone". Paul's survival guide for new pilots identifies the pitfalls waiting inside The Killing Zone, the period from 50 to 350 flight hours when they leave their instructors behind and fly as pilot in command for the first time. Although they're privately certified, many of these unseasoned aviators are unaware of the potential accidents that lie ahead while trying to build decision-making skills on their own - many times falling victim to inexperience. Paul joins the show this week with some great educational points, but also some fascinating stories!
