"PITCH + POWER = PERFORMANCE". We've heard this over and over again in our flight training, but what does it mean? Why can't we agree on "what to pitch for?" or "what to power to?". In this podcast, we take a relatively deep dive into this important training concept. Please enjoy!    

For over 100 years we've been trying to teach pilots some very basic concepts: * Fly the wing * Keep it coordinated * Manage the pull of the engine Yet loss of control is still the leading cause of fatal accidents. On this podcast look at this, discuss the dangers of inside rudder in a turn, and distill the skills required when it comes to the rudder. Please enjoy The Finer Points! Jason
