Randall "Random" Brooks shares his expertise on upset prevention and recovery training, revealing how proper pilot preparation for emergencies translates to valuable life skills and better decision-making under pressure.

• Loss of control in flight is aviation's #1 killer, with aerodynamic stalls causing about 50% of these incidents
• Pilots typically have only 6-10 seconds to respond correctly in an upset situation before it becomes unrecoverable
• Traditional simulator training has critical gaps because it can't replicate the true physics or psychological stress of real emergencies
• Building muscle memory and neural pathways through actual aircraft training helps pilots access their skills even under extreme stress
• Aviation teaches valuable life skills including responsibility, judgment, teamwork, and emotional regulation
• The most important factor in pilot performance is attitude – how badly you want it and what you're willing to put into it
• APS training creates associations between verbal trigger words and physical actions to ensure pilots can respond correctly when startled
