OB353: Hurricane Response - All Hands on Deck

Episode 353 Show Notes

Topic of the show: More Helene Response Discussion from Patron AJ and Podcaster AC-On this week's show, AG and RH share some first-hand stories of the hurricane relief efforts in North Carolina.  Without general aviation and the volunteers on the ground, lifesaving supply delivery would have been delayed several days.  Great job, GA!

We want to thank all the volunteer pilots, the volunteer organizers, all those that donated time or supplies, the controllers working insane levels of traffic, and the volunteers at remote airports for supplying their communities with vital food, medicine, and clothing in the wake of Helene's unprecedented destruction.  We are so thankful and proud to be a part of the general aviation community!   

A special shout out to our Patrons and listeners for everything you've done to help our state.  We are so grateful for your generosity.
