Pursuing my schooling on computer-aided flight plans, usually generated by an electronic flight bag (EFB—see Are You Current with the New Airman Certification Standards? for my ACS motivation), has led me to an FAA advisory circular, Use of Flight Deck Displays of Digital Weather and Aeronautical Information.

Pilots often claim that the drive to the airport is the most dangerous part of any flight. 1] But does this hold true for private planes and personal flights? These flights, known as General Aviation (GA), have reached historically low accident rates. Instructional Flights Instructional flights saw 2.3

It involved an in-flight breakup, and the pilot was a doctor. This is often the result of the aircraft picking up excessive airspeed as a result of pilot disorientation in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), followed by an abrupt pitch-up after exiting the bottom of the cloud.
