It is hard to tie seminar attendance to accidents that didn t happen, because there is only anecdotal evidence. It s much better to tell the world, the media, and the legislators that our industry offers hundreds of free safety seminars every year as a preventive measure, open to every pilot. I hope this has sparked your interest and that you ll watch for a flier in the mail when ASF comes to town. If you are a seminar regular, bring along pilot friends who don t have the seminar habit. Check out a seminar program and plan to include ASF in your philanthropic plans this year.
Every dollar helps.
