"Farley List"

Attended a GASCo seminar last year in Bristol and during the talk some of John Farley's work was spoken of including the "Farley List".

As I recall it was a way of recording stuff that 'nearly caught you out' and should be learned from to prevent an accident happening next time.

I would like to know more about the 'Farley List'.

Is this explained in JF's books or is there another reference I can source which explains in more detail? Thanks.

John's book "A View from the Hover" is an excellent read, so I recommend it to you. In the mean time, I suggest that you PM John and ask him! His user name is "John Farley" here.

The book is indeed very good. I was recommended to read it recently as part of some flight test CVE training. The technical flying bits are so useful that I read them twice in quick succession. The biographical bits are interesting as well.

It can be bought direct from the publisher (so no money goes to tax dodging web sites) here
