SUMMARY:Using AI for flight planning - Bob Reynolds
DESCRIPTION:Bob will explain how to use Generative AI to create an actual\, stressful fight plan using ChatGPT for a weather briefing for the Go/No Go decision. Also planning to share two other scenarios: a ChatGPT session was used to debrief on a NORDO situation in Atlanta\, and then hypothesize with the system to plan for a similar situation taking off IFR from KPWK. This new\, rapidly evolving technology is helpful but challenging\, and occasionally seductively wrong! \nSpeaker Bio: \n \nBob Reynolds is a Chicago-based SR22T pilot based at KDPA with 2\,400+ hours and landings at 496 airports. A Guinness World Record holder (48 states in 38:13 with John Skittone)\, he has landed at all major Class B airports and flown to the northernmost point of North America—Barrow\, Alaska—circling many of the nation’s most iconic landmarks at low altitude along the way. He is currently planning a transatlantic flight this July. Now he applies AI and ChatGPT to flight planning\, debriefing\, and smarter decision-making. \n

SUMMARY:PWK Bedtime Stories: Navigating Airspace\, Approaches\, and ATC - Aaron Barclay\, CFI/CFII/ATC C90 - June CEPA Safety Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Master PWK airspace\, practice approaches\, and ATC comms through real local stories. \nWhether you’re dodging the O’Hare “shelf” or trying to squeeze in one last practice approach before the sun goes down\, flying out of Chicago Executive can feel like a high-stakes thriller. Join us as we crack open the “Big Book of PWK Bedtime Stories” to learn how to keep your flight from becoming a cautionary tale. We’ll dive into the nuances of our local airspace\, the “to call or not to call” dilemma\, and the secret language of asking for favors in a busy corridor. From the best way to file your flight plan to those legendary “did he really just say that?” moments\, we’re covering it all. Come for the survival tips on who to call and when\, and stay for the open forum where no question is too basic and no “there I was” story is too strange. Let’s ensure your next trip off Runway 16/34 ends with a smooth landing\, not a phone number. \nSpeaker: Aaron Barclay\, ATC Specialist\, CFI/CFII \nA Chicago native and 2007 Embry-Riddle graduate\, Aaron has been a C90 Approach Controller in the radar room since 2008 and a CFI/I since 2012. When he isn’t managing the arrivals\, he is actively instructing and flying with the Naperville Flying Club (LL10). \nA true hands-on hobbyist\, Aaron loves motorcycles\, working on cars\, and figuring out how things work. He is married to his 5th-grade sweetheart\, and together they are raising four wild boys (like himself) between the ages of 9 and 15. Whether he’s on the scope\, in the cockpit\, or in the garage\, he is always looking for the next challenge. \nFAA WINGS Program register link coming soon.
