Welcome to our first crossover episode! The next few shows will be released in a series of video clips on the HAI website as we sent Sam and Kenny to Washington DC to speak with members of Helicopter Association International. The goal of this series is to better understand the civilian aviation world, get a feel for jobs/opportunities that exist outside of the organization, and ultimately allow both communities to learn better from each other. Part 1 features Chris Hill, the Director of Safety for HAI as well as Abbey Hutter, Executive Director of JSFirm and Jaime Truxal of Aviation Search Group. Enjoy!
We plan to release shows on a bi-weekly basis. On Fridays of course!
Hosts: LCDR Kenny Ingram, LCDR Sam Hafensteiner
Producer/Creator: LT Ryan Vandehei
