Gene Reynolds: Former Special Ops Pilot

Avination, welcome back to episode 59 of the Pilot to Pilot podcast featuring Gene Reynolds. Gene has pretty much seen it all as a helicopter pilot. He has flown in the army (special ops) and as a civilian pilot in many facets.

  • Some of the main topics Gene and I talk about are...

  • How the movie Top Gun led him to want to become a military pilot

  • How a medical issue messed up his flight slot for the military.

  • How and why he joined the warrant officer flight program.

  • Talk about the differences between military training vs civilian.

  • How Helicopters don’t naturally want to fly.

  • We talk about what happens when you fall behind in military helicopter training.

  • Why we need high-quality CFI’s to stay as a CFI.

  • Gene talks about his deployments

  • Gene shares some war stories.

  • Gene talks about how he had TEN tours in the military.

  • Gene talks about flying Special Ops.

  • We talk about how someone can make a career in commercial helicopter flying.

  • Gene talks about the path to getting your dream helicopter job.

  • Talk about the importance of maintaining networking and not burning any bridges.

  • Talks about mentoring military helicopter pilots on how to transfer into the civilian world.


Happy Flying,

Justin
