While at EAA AirVenture 2016 ANN CEO and Editor-In-Chief, Jim Campbell, sat down to talk with Joe Brown, the President of Hartzell Propeller. You would think they were going to talk about props, but the topic of this conversation was actually about pilot proficiency. It so happens that Brown is not only responsible for the production of great propellers, he is dedicated to pilots becoming and remaining proficient.
This was demonstrated at EAA AirVenture at the Pilot Proficiency Center. The facility was sponsored by Hartzell Propeller, along with many other companies and organizations, and Brown talks about Hartzell’s goals for addressing the vitally important issue of pilot proficiency.
In this video you’ll hear Brown talk about his own experience and how it triggered him into taking action to help general aviation pilots. He talks about the success of the Pilot Proficiency Center at AirVenture this year, and reviews plans for the future development of pilot proficiency curriculums.
What Brown has to say is vitally important to all pilots, and what he is doing to improve the situation deserves a salute. All pilots should watch this video to find out about the programs coming down the road that will have a positive effect on general aviation safety.
