On 2 April 2022 a light aircraft flying from England to France disappeared from radar over the English Channel. Tragically both of the pilots on board and the aircraft haven't been found. A few weeks later the Air Accident Investigation Branch (AAIB) published a Special Bulletin that set out the evidence that was available about this flight up until that point. In this episode we cover what is in the report and discuss the safety guidance that it includes for pilots.More information about this incident:AAIB Special Bulletin S1/2022 on Piper PA-28R-200-2, G-EGVAFlying in cloud animationSafety guidance and resources mentioned in this episode:The Skyway Code CAA Safety Sense leaflet 23 - Pilots - its your decisionCAA Safety Sense leaflet 21 - DitchingWeather planning resources for pilots from the Met Office (including METARs and TAFs)Skybrary The Airspace and Safety Initiative
