New Partner: Go-Arounds Are Awesome

I'm proud to announce that THE SCHIFF SHOW has partnered with Go-Arounds Are Awesome!, a safety initiative founded by my friend Jim Pitman, an experienced flight instructor and Designated Pilot Examiner.

​

Jim's message lines up with something I talk about all the time: a go-around isn't a failure. It's a sign of good airmanship. Too many accidents start with a pilot who kept going on an approach that should have been abandoned. GAAA! is working to change that mindset, one pilot at a time.

​

My challenge to you: Sign the Pledge Wall and commit to flying a stabilized approach every time, and to going around when an approach doesn't meet those criteria. Then share it with your students, your crew, and your flying friends.

​

Fly safe, and remember: go-arounds are awesome.
