The first wave of safety topics include:

1. Pilot Decision-Making - Accidents start in
the planning stage; good decisions need to
be made before flying begins.

2. Mountain Flying - Transport Canada
requires pilots to have the right skills and
qualifications to operate in the
environments they plan to fly in.
3. Changing the Culture - Existing rules and
regulations should be followed in order to
encourage safety, not just because it is
mandatory to do so.
4. Shoulder Harnesses - Approved shoulder
harness kits are available for certain
aircraft; Transport Canada will promote
their availability to aircraft owners and
encourage their use where appropriate.
