| A significant number of general aviation fatalities could be avoided if pilots were better informed and trained to determine and fly their aircraft at the best glide speed while maneuvering to complete a forced landing. If you're faced with a forced landing, do you know your best glide speed?   #FlySafe Printable Fact Sheet Archive #FlySafe Topic Archive on Blog  Upcoming FAASTeam Events Bonus Read A Case Study from a Midair Collision  This was a real-life midair collision between a drone and Cessna 172 in 2021. The risk of a midair collision between drones and traditional aircraft is always higher at altitudes where both aircraft share the same airspace. The belief that traditional aircraft only operate at altitudes above 500 feet is a common misconception among drone pilots. Except for takeoff and landing, most fixed-wing aircraft typically do operate above 500 feet. Helicopters often fly below 500 feet and routinely share the same airspace as drones. Connect With Us |
