Looking forward to seeing everyone in Newport next month. As Mike mentioned we have about 20 Phenoms and over 50 delegates attending!

[Username Protected]

First evening of the Phenom Pilots event was a great success. Lots of fun conversations around the dinner tables!

[Username Protected]

[Username Protected]

Great breakfast by the harbor.

[Username Protected]

Rob from SoCal Approach kicked off the morning with an informative session on ATC operations in the LA basin. Lots of great questions from our members.

[Username Protected]

Next (Username Protected) Norton gave a detailed presentation on Phenom 100/300 accidents, with a deep look at Runway Excursions. We are going to turn this presentation into a webinar in the near future.

The big takeaway was that if the runway is wet and non-grooved, always use Contaminated landing numbers.

[Username Protected]

Following (Username Protected), Jon from the Phenom Camera Ship gave an awesome presentation on the development of the Shot Over camera system and how they used the plane for almost all of the Top Gun II air-to-air shots. He was able to share some amazing videos from the filming.

[Username Protected]

After a fantastic lunch, John Nance presented a session on the history of Cockpit Resource Management.




We regrouped in the evening for the last dinner of the event.

Congratulations and Thank you to (Username Protected), (Username Protected) (Username Protected) and all our presenters. They put on a fantastic event. Educational, Fun, and great camaraderie. Look forward to the next one.

What a nice mix of content, networking and social time. It was great to meet everyone in person, and get a chance to tap into the impressive tribal knowledge of this community.

Thanks for all the hard work that went into pulling this event together!

(Username Protected) and (Username Protected):

Thanks for putting together a fabulous Phenom Pilots weekend event in Newport Beach. The presentations on Saturday morning were both informative and fun.

My favorite presentation was the Phenom 300 camera ship. Kinda hard to believe that a P300 owner like us was willing to take the risk to get a major STC done on his personal P300 for a never-done-before P300 modification. Even harder to believe that he did it without a prior commitment from Paramount Pictures for the Top Gun aerial filming work. His descriptions of piloting the airplane to get the aerial film shots for the movie was almost unbelievable to me.

Great selection on the Balboa Bay Hotel —- the location, accommodations, and food were all first class all the way.

Looking forward to the next Phenom Pilots Event

Wonderful event, thanks for putting this together (Username Protected) and (Username Protected). I was only able to be in town for the speaker series on Saturday, but the safety content across multiple presentations was worth it. Hopefully I can make the full weekend next year to meet everyone else!

[Username Protected]

A big thanks to (Username Protected) and (Username Protected) for the coordination required to put this conference together. I'll echo what others have stated in that the venue was spectacular along with the networking and camaraderie. Great to spend a little time with each of you this past week along with current and future clients.

[Username Protected]

It was great to get to know more fellow Phenom Pilots and I really enjoyed the content. An all around winner. Thanks (Username Protected) and (Username Protected)!
