Summary
271 Max reads listener letters and feedback. A listener asks if owners are more invested in their aircraft and more likely to do an impossible turn than renter pilots. Multiple listeners provide inputs on PC-12 autopilot disconnects. There was another Diamond DA42 crash, this time in Slovenia. The FAA has Recommendations for Workload Management and Automation Use in single pilot jets. And two listeners share their experiences with precipitation or p-static.
