Bonus: Obstacle Departure Procedures with Max Trescott

Topic of the show: In the first part of this bonus episode, RH interviews Max Trescott about Obstacle Departure Procedures and 14 CFR Part 91 regulations regarding the application and use of these vital procedures.  In the second part of the episode, we break down the comments made by a listener regarding Obstacle Departure Procedures, Part 91 compliance, and personal departures off of airports with no instrument approaches or ODPs.  We also discuss the importance of preflight planning to determine aircraft performance as it relates to surrounding terrain.  The audio only version will be available in all podcast players.  PATRONS have access to a video version with a visual narrative of the discussion.
