"On Second Thought" is a new monthly livestreamed video series, premiering January 20, 2026, aimed at improving aviation safety by analyzing pilot decision-making and human factors in accidents.
Co-hosted by aviation advocates Jolie Lucas and Harvey Madison, and produced by John Teipen, the series uses expert insights to help pilots understand and mitigate common behavioral traps and risks identified in FAA/NTSB reports.
Viewers are eligible for FAA WINGS credit, and Avemco policyholders who subscribe can receive a 5 percent discount on their insurance.
