Jesse Munns has flown helicopters for almost twenty years, doing everything from offshore to EMS.

He had the awareness to know that he was putting himself and others at risk.
In this episode, I’ll speak with Jesse about the lessons we can draw from his circumstance, and what a road back to flying might look like for himself and others in his shoes.
