Haha I didn’t think anybody apart from a few EU officials read that site

Did anything come out of this?
Yes, it was talked about quite a lot in EASA meetings as a successful event/project, but I can’t actually find any write up on the EASA site. Why don’t you get Mr Holt to ask about it on the EASA GA Community forum?
Everybody knows it and still it happens. Dig up the contributing factors leading to inadvertent flight into IMC and try to learn (and teach) a lesson. Adapt learning objectives, syllabi etc.
I wonder what the workshop covers?
How do you tell people to not fly into IMC unintentionally?

Surprising that he survived att all. How did he do it?

I take it he was not good on TC partial panel? or was he “no gyro” at all?

Like many of us, as some point he was not looking to be saved, you have to get deep to ask for help

How can partial panel be trained with integrated avionics? Post it stickers?
Dimming the display and post-it, I recall pulling CB during one revalidation did actually cause a manometer failure, and cancellation of the rest of the flight, and the aircraft grounded for 4 days (I was the guy flying next): the takeaway, if you plan to pull CBs worth keeping partial panel & unusual attitudes to the end of the lesson/exam…

Here’s one that turned up on the weekend. The ground makes an appearance shortly after 2:40.
Seen it, but didn’t pushed “play” until now. 3-4 years ago a guy here wasn’t that fortunate. He jumped, but a second or two too late. He was found dead close to the glider, the chute pulled, laying on the ground.

Post-its, dimming the display, or pulling the AHRS and / or ADC and / or PFD breakers, with the caveat that pulling the ADC breaker usually results in the transponder losing altitude reporting capability. Pulling PFD breakers results in losing Nav1 / Com1 tuning ability*.
*applies to Garmin units.
This video is scary. Gave me chills.
