| Tuesday, October 14, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CDT with Chris Henry | |||
| Few aircraft names get more attention as an adversary than the MiG. We will discuss the MiG-15 and MiG-21, which the EAA Aviation Museum is fortunate to have examples of. | |||
| Wednesday, October 15, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CDT with Ryan Koch | |||
| Home sims are more capable than ever and can boost pilot proficiency in ways that go well beyond what you might expect. But that value comes only when you know how to use them effectively. Join Ryan Koch from Pilot Workshops and explore how to get meaningful practice from your sim, without getting lost in the maze of options, hardware tweaks, or unrealistic expectations. | |||
| Tuesday, October 21, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CDT with Tom Charpentier | |||
| Tom Charpentier from the EAA Government Advocacy staff reviews the requirements for existing pilots to operate under the Sport Pilot 2.0 / MOSAIC rules that go into effect on October 22, 2025. Additionally, Tom will answer many questions that EAA has received since the final rule was published during EAA AirVenture 2025. | |||

On Centerline: Avoiding Loss of Directional Control During Takeoff and Landing | Qualifies for FAA WING credit |
|||
| Wednesday, October 22, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CDT | |||
| Loss of Directional Control on the Runway (LODC-R) is one of the most common lightplane accident scenarios. Although LODC-R rarely causes serious injury or death, it frequently results in significant damage that is expensive to fix or “totals” the aircraft. History shows most LODC-R events happen when the crosswind component is less than 10 knots, telling us it’s the pilot, not the wind, that is the root cause. The good news is that means there are things pilots can do to recognize situations where we are at risk of losing control and techniques we can adopt to avoid the hazards. In this program we’ll explore those scenarios and highlight those techniques so you can confidently keep it on the centerline. Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit.

ATC Communications: Back to Basics | Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit |
|||
| Wednesday, October 29th, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CDT | |||
| Communication procedures between pilots and air traffic controllers don't have to be intimidating. During this webinar FAA air traffic controller Karoline Gorman will emphasize proper radio phraseology, clearances, readbacks, and the use of standard ICAO and FAA terminology. By attending you will learn to interpret and deliver instructions with precision, maintain situational awareness through exchanges, and respond effectively to routine and emergency scenarios. Whether a seasoned pilot or just starting out, all pilot levels are welcome to attend. Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit. | |||

Changing the Oil | Qualifies for FAA WINGS and AMT credit |
|||
| Wednesday, November 5, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CST with Mike Busch | |||
| In this webinar, Mike Busch A&P/IA discusses our most frequent maintenance task: changing the oil. Mike explains why we need to do it so often and how to determine the appropriate oil-change interval for your particular engine. He also discusses the various brands and types of piston aircraft engine oils and oil additives, and he offers recommendations as to which he prefers. Qualifies for FAA WINGS and AMT credit. | |||
| Wednesday, November 11th, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CST with Ike Langkau | |||
| While it looks like an Me 109, there is a deeper story to tell beneath the metal of the Hispano Buchon. Join Ike Langkau to uncover some history of the EAA Aviation Museum’s example of this aircraft. | |||
| Tuesday, November 18th, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CST with Chris Gauger | |||
| The Ray Aviation Scholarship is a merit-based scholarship program to help young people learn to fly. Funded by the Ray Foundation, managed by EAA headquarters, and administered by EAA chapters, this program has allowed over 700 youths to obtain their pilot certificates to date. Christopher Gauger from the EAA Chapters staff will provide an overview of this successful program for both newcomers and those already familiar with the program. | |||

Survival Gear: What Should You Carry? | Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit |
|||
| Wednesday, November 19th, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CST with Prof. H. Paul Shuch | |||
| Despite our best intentions, not all flights terminate at the intended destination. Occasionally, we find ourselves having to land off-airport. It may take several days to be extricated from our unplanned campsite. In this FAA Safety Team WINGS award webinar Prof. H. Paul Shuch addresses what you will need to cram into the airplane, enabling you survive in the wild while awaiting rescue. Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit. | |||

Basic Engine Inspections and Trend Monitoring That Owners Can Perform | Qualifies for FAA WINGS and AMT credit |
|||
| Tuesday, November 25th, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CST with Bill Ross | |||
| Bill Ross from Superior Air Parts will explore how performing prescribed preventive maintenance can reduce total engine ownership costs while increasing reliability, durability, and safety. | |||
|
Quantifying Maintenance Risk | Qualifies for FAA WINGS and AMT credit |
|||
| Wednesday, December 3, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CST with Mike Busch | |||
| How much more dangerous are GA airplanes to fly during the first hours after maintenance? In this webinar, Mike Busch A&P/IA discusses a fascinating study based on 17 years of NTSB accident and incident data that attempts to quantify the risk of maintenance-induced failures. Mike presents the conclusions of this study and discusses why current maintenance regulations and practices are actually making our aircraft measurably less safe than they could be.

Threat & Error Management | Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit |
|||
| Wednesday, December 10th, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CST with Ken Solosky | |||
| Aviation Threat and Error Management (TEM) is a safety framework for pilots to proactively identify, manage, and mitigate risks during flight by recognizing threats, managing errors, and preventing undesired aircraft states. The goal is to maintain safety margins by breaking the "accident chain" of accumulating threats and errors before they lead to accidents. Join Ken Solosky as he presents these lifesaving safety concepts. Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit. | |||

Avoiding the Base to Final Spin Accident | Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit |
|||
| Wednesday, January 21st, 2025, 7:00 p.m. CST with Gordon Penner | |||
| This webinar is an essential session for pilots of all experience levels, focusing on a critical and common aviation safety issue. Presented by Gordon Penner, a renowned master CFI-Aerobatics and FAA Gold Seal instructor, this presentation offers more than just a theoretical overview; it provides practical, lifesaving knowledge. Penner uses his extensive expertise to deliver a simple and clear explanation of the flight dynamics and pilot actions that lead to a stall/spin accident on the turn from base to final. The session is meticulously structured to help pilots not only understand the "how" and "why" behind these incidents but, more importantly, to equip them with the skills to recognize the precursors to a spin. Attendees will learn to identify key indicators and apply proactive, timely corrective measures to prevent the accident before it ever occurs. This webinar is designed to sharpen your aeronautical decision-making and enhance your proficiency in critical phases of flight, ultimately making you a safer and more confident pilot.
