On episode 4 Cam and I chat with Pat Crowe. Pat is a veteran police officer having served as a general duties police office before moving into the police air wing conducting search and rescue and aerial law enforcement, after what would be a near death confrontation with a criminal whilst on patrol. Pat then found himself on an ambulance helicopter eventually becoming the senior contract aircrew officer responsible for the management of aircrew officers across four bases and six helicopters. Pat is now a human factors instructor at the ACE Training Centre in Bankstown Australia where he develops and delivers training based on his experience in both policing and aviation. During this episode we speak about some of his challenges along the way, and the future of human factors in the aeromedical setting.
