The concept of BITS is to encourage pilots to address their mental
preparation for the upcoming soaring season. Topics are presented to
stimulate discussion, awareness and flexibility in soaring
applications. Persons who can benefit from these presentations are all
folks who fly or crew for sailplanes, or fly or ground handle
airplanes. Sessions will contain value for pre-solo, intial training
students through accomplished cross-country soaring veterans. Emphasis
is placed on an engaging, interactive exchange.
These talks can never be fully enjoyed through DVD, video or Powerpoint
replay which lack the speaker's inflection and wit. Don't miss
this slate of candid reviews of real-life moments in SoCal soaring.
The review of omissions and mistakes by others may help us break the
cycle of repetition for 2006. Get your flying brain in gear before you
push to the takeoff line for the season. Enjoy this time spent with
friends without the distraction of heat, dust, and lift. Bring a crew,
a friend or family at a significant price discount. Wings Program
credit available. Open to the public.
