Guest speaker W. Daniel Burtis is a former interdiction agent and currently an LA County Fire Department Pilot that is tasked with aerial fire operations over the busy airspace of Los Angeles, California. Daniel brings to us a well rounded perspective on the elements that can lead to a CFIT event. From pre-flight planning to landing, these events are a constant threat that should be considered. Discover what it takes to fly in mountainous terrain, congested airspace, low level flying for fire applications and rescues as well as coordinating with multiple aircraft, ATC, and news channels while airborne. This webinar discusses the risk management that should be in place for preventing a CFIT Event. Join your New England FAASTeam Program managers in a full Q&A session during the presentation.
