The 2024 99s Poker Run

Flying the Colorado Rockies, with more than 50 mountain peaks exceeding 14,000 feet, and into more than a dozen public-use airports located near the communities and recreational areas located there, can be an exhilarating experience. But it can also be a hazardous experience for those unaware of the unique weather related variables encountered in mountain flight and the effects on aircraft performance. In Colorado, accident statistics show that pilots without the skills needed for safe flight over mountainous terrain often get themselves into situations which are beyond their capability to handle. The mountain flying course is a program developed by the Colorado Pilots Association to improve that capability.

This will be a roundtable discussion with DPEs from Colorado and Wyoming. Fixed wing and rotor craft. This Q & A ZOOM webinar and is open to all. Get your questions answered. Registration is not required. WINGS credit

Chapter 43 is embarking on a unique idea - an Artful Fly-Out on September 28, 2024 to Sterling, CO (KSTK) to visit the Short Wing Piper Club‘s Regional Fly-In. Participating pilots will accept an Artful Flying challenge on either or both legs of the flight. Participation is optional - you can certainly just fly to KSTK if you‘d prefer. Stay tuned for details.

Again, participation in the "Match Game" component of the Fly-Out is optional. Obviously, the Pilot-in-Command has the complete and final approval for any passenger requests.
