Successful teams have forever changed the landscape of future aviation flight department performance. Persistent and committed collaboration with immediate, precision feedback further adds to the value of the flight department director as an integral asset to the corporation. "When Teams Work Well" locates sources of expertise from within and outside of the department, integrates technology, and defines strategies to capture information and communicate change as more sophisticated systems are continually being developed. Studies prove a leader-dominant climate produces a greater disparity in performance than a teamwork climate. A safety culture dependent on continuous improvement without shared responsibility is an accident waiting to happen. What are the critical capability gaps and mission challenges facing flight department managers today? What are the personnel development plans? How do you improve collaboration? These and other questions will be addressed during this outstanding performance based workshop.

Pilots require two certificates from the FAA to fly: a pilot certificate and a medical certificate. The criteria for maintaining the pilot certificate are well defined.

This presentation will address recent FAA medical policy and standards changes (both favorable and unfavorable), look at pending changes and discuss strategies to avoid FAA enforcement actions for medical reporting infractions. Subject areas will include cardiac health, vision, hearing, cancer, depression, alcohol related incidents, medications and more.

Deciding which light aircraft is best suited to meet your business needs is much like preparing to fly an airplane.

That's equally true when it comes to picking the right light aircraft. You need to define the mission and purpose for your aircraft. You need to assemble a first-rate professional support team to help you identify and acquire the ideal airplane, including an aviation lawyer, broker, accountant, lender, aircraft inspector and aircraft operator. And, you need to complete an acquisition and closing checklist to guarantee a smooth transaction. This Session will address these topics, including such practical issues as how to locate the perfect aircraft and properly structure the aircraft ownership and management for an efficient and legal operation.
