QotM
====

Many pilots are accustomed to temperatures in degrees F, but have
difficulty converting degrees C to degrees F. What is a simple conversion
from degrees C to degrees F that you can make in your head?


Scenario
========

Winter IFR presents unique hazards with little margin for error. How much
confirmation of benign conditions is enough for a well-equipped,
high-performance single thats not certified for flight into known icing?
And is icing the most important risk factor to consider on this
cold-weather flight?

 Add 40º, then multiple by 5/9 to go Fº to Cº, then subtract the 40ºAdd 40º, then multiple by 9/5 to go Cº to Fº, then subtract the 40º

This is not quite right.

The scientific formulas are:
    C to F:  (Cdeg * 9/5) +32 = Fdeg
    F to C:  (Fdeg -32) * 5/9 - Cdeg

        Ex: 100C * 9/5 = 180 + 32 = 212F  (boiling point H20)

For quick calculations the estimating formula (discussed in the Tues 
Meeting) is:
    C to F:  (Cdeg * 2) + 30  = approx Fdeg
    F to C:  (Fdeg -30 ) / 2  = approx Cdeg


ex. 17 C
     exact:    17 * 9/5 + 32 = 62.6
     approx:   17 * 2  + 30= 64

Scenario/Case Study:
You're making a routine daytime flight, although it's in IMC. Autopilot and advanced avionics should contribute to a safer flight.  Are you prepared for an unexpected circling approach?

Select Number: SW19134205

Description:

'Cockpit 2 Cowl' with Brian Schiff and Jeff Simon is a program that
explores General Aviation safety topics from the combined perspective of
Flight Instructors, Pilots, and Mechanics, exploring both man & machine to
make aviation safer and more enjoyable. We will discuss some of the more
common misconceptions regarding flying and maintaining aircraft. Often,
this is regarded as "common knowledge," but common knowledge isn't
knowledge. We will clarify some of the differences. Attendees will learn
about topical maintenance subjects, how to manage maintenance, handle
emergencies, and improve communication between pilots and mechanics. Watch
previous episodes and receive FAA WINGS credit on SocialFlight.com. Watch

"NWS Weather-Ready Nation FLYERS Icing Webinar"
Topic: Non-Convective Icing
On Thursday, December 19, 2024 at 18:00 Central Standard Time (16:00 PST; 17:00 MST; 19:00 EST; 14:00 HST; 15:00 AKST; 17:00  Arizona; Friday, December 20, 2024 00:00 GMT)


Select Number: CE05133995

Description:
According to data from the NTSB, in-flight icing is a significant contributing factor in many general aviation accidents. Approximately 11% of weather-related general aviation accidents involve icing as a causal factor, resulting in around five fatalities each year. A crucial aspect of preventing icing accidents is a pilot's ability to recognize icing conditions, effectively plan flight routes to avoid these conditions, and take appropriate actions, such as changing altitude or diverting to a safer location.�
This webinar will explore the weather processes that lead to icing conditions and equip pilots with the knowledge to adjust in-flight altitudes to avoid them. Presenters will also share a real-life icing situation faced by a general aviation pilot who safely reached the ground thanks to the support of ATC and CWSU forecasters. Lastly, participants will learn about various sources of icing information.
