23 Feb 20:

King Schools have been very supportive of human factors and safety management systems seminars that I produced in the past, they offered free courses as door prizes. John and Martha have been at this for 45 years now, and they have a few stories to tell that share important information. I do my Flight Instructor Refresher with them every 2 years and while there are cheaper ways to do it, it feels like a fun reunion to go through the modules. They have some Risk Management modules that would be good for pilots to look through, Single Pilot IFR, Takeoffs and Landings and Weather. In addition to certificate and rating courses they offer a variety of single subject courses, and also free courses. I consider King Schools a valuable safety resource, easily accessible from whatever platform you are using right now. Check it out!
