Show Notes

Back with our HAI series! We promise to bring you ALPAT SAR part 2 shortly, but we wanted to close the loop on our trip to HAI headquarters. Sam and Kenny sit down with the CEO of HAI, Mr. Jim Viola Army Colonel (ret). Having flown most Army helicopters and commanded numerous soldiers in the field, Jim speaks about taking that leadership and safety mindset into the civilian world. The group discusses risk vs. gain, how to build a leadership mentality of safety, and Sam tells the story of the worst flyover in history. Our communities have a great deal of overlap, and we are thrilled to have been invited to sit down with some of the greats of civilian aviation over the course of this series. We hope you enjoyed it as well!

We plan to release shows on a bi-weekly basis. On Fridays of course!

Hosts: LCDR Kenny Ingram, LCDR Sam Hafensteiner
