EAA Chapter 972

we hopefully have a lot of pleasure while flying. And
we hopefully have not a single accident!

For safe flights it is maybe helpfull, reading about accidents happenend in the past. Here is a link which is showing a lot of past aircraft-accidents.

www.airsafetyinstitute.org/accidentmap

(click on the picture to go there!) gives you an interactive map with the pinpoints of your selected accidents. You can move and scale the map as you like. Also select the accident types. They are sorted by

• AC-types (more than hundred different types),
• Years (starting in 2003) ,
• reasons (takeoff, landings, fuel management,VFR-into IMC and stall/spin)

By clicking to a pin, you can find this special NTSB-report.
Also a lot of safety-advises are available on this AOPA webpage.
Maybe it helps a little avoiding accidents !

Have a joyfull AND safe 2012
