Fitchburg Safety Seminar, and Fly-in BBQ

George Clark writes: … This Tuesday, April 10th, the Fitchburg Pilot Association is holding a Safety Seminar preceded by a Picnic / BBQ at 6:00 PM. The seminar is on Spatial Disorientation and features the "Barany Chair".

We humans are VFR only creatures. The senses we use to keep the blue side up are completely unreliable when our bodies are in motion without visual reference to the world around us. Join us for life saving demonstration on why you need to be instrument proficient even if you are only a VFR pilot. Take a ride in the FAASTeam’s Spatial Disorientation Chair.
