AIRSTA Houston gets the spotlight this week as LCDR Matt Krueger tells us about the life and SAR at the AIRSTA. Matt is proof that us black hat ATC IP's can have a life back in the fleet. He shares how meaningful being a unit IP has been and how it has been difficult becoming the "they" that they've been talking about. One moment you're a part of the wardroom, the next you're a leader in the wardroom. Matt shares with us his experience making this transition as he also tells some great stories of the Echo on SAR duty!
We plan to release shows on a bi-weekly basis. On Fridays of course!
Hosts: LCDR Kenny Ingram, LCDR Sam Hafensteiner
