Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
ASI's videos are excellent .. both the real pilot stories, and the accident analysis.
Hope this hasn't been submitted here yet. Just stumbled upon this on the Air Safety Institute's playlist. A story of misinterpreted weather, get-there-itis, a crash in the mountains and surviving the experience. A very educational and well produced video.
Totally thought this was Uncle Vernon from just looking at the thumbnail.
I haven't seen this one before. It definitely is a good example of little decisions leading up to a bad consequence. As the story played out I thought, this guy is doing the right things by landing and waiting for better weather. But then when you see the bigger picture you realize he should've just scrubbed the flight.
