What you should know about "Climb Via"
On April 3, 2014, the FAA changed ATC phraseology and procedures associated with Standard Instrument Departure (SID) clearances. The new key phrase is “climb via,” which is closely related to the long-standing “descend via” phraseology used in Standard Terminal Arrival (STAR) clearances. Misunderstanding of the new “climb via” SID phraseology caused the filing of numerous pilot deviation reports. Some of these deviations resulted in less than standard aircraft separation. It is the pilot-in-command’s (PIC) responsibility to ensure compliance with an ATC clearance. For “climb via” clearances, remember the following: Top Altitude: Prior to takeoff, pilots must identify the
Know where training aircraft practice in Utah and more!
A group of Utah flight schools has come together to form the Utah Flight Training Consortium. Our goal is to promote safety in our own back yard in a rapidly growing flight training environment. One of the first products produced by the group is an interactive Google map that allows pilots to see where each school has established practice areas in order to increase situational awareness and decrease the likelihood of an accident. The website also features a monthly safety article which is written by one of the safety team or by a student at one of the schools. Please

Get to know CVO: David and D-Claw
At the Cascades Volcano Observatory, staff use technical skills and creativity to solve complex problems and innovate for the future. David uses algorithms to model different volcanic hazards to help emergency managers plan and prepare for eruptions. D-Claw is a revolutionary tool for hazard modeling because it creates a more realistic model of how flows behave by including solid-fluid feedbacks that occur during a flow. This enhancement improves previous modeling techniques and creates a more accurate picture of where the flows may go and how fast they will get there. The better the model, the more accurate and detailed information can
