Wayman Crash Safety

Pilots are obsessed with safety. Reading NTSB crash reports and every notice from the FAA. It starts with learning to pre-flight the aircraft on your first flight. Practicing emergency maneuvers, and learning the limitations of your airplane. This extends to all of the systems and standard procedures that the academy uses to create the safest environment possible.

For more than 34 years Wayman has had an excellent safety record. However, over hundreds of thousands of flight hours we have had experiences with accidents and incidents at various levels. From this we have learned to trusts systems, educate with safety in mind, and grow an open culture of safety reporting.
