CAPT Tony Hahn (ret.) joins us on this episode to talk sea stories, dry-suit mishaps, and proper techniques for landing on centerline (slash, putting the gear down). This episode is a wild ride, but worth every moment as we get open and honest insight from a phenomenal aviator. Thanks for opening up to us Tony!
Producer note: Tony got back to us after his review and noted that "skids" was not the mentioned nickname, it was actually "Stains". He also corrected his SAR case to include 2 litter hoists, 1 SADPU and 2 directs.
We plan to release shows on a bi-weekly basis. On Fridays of course!
Hosts: LCDR Kenny Ingram, LCDR Sam Hafensteiner, LT Nick Litchfield
