Tom Ostrem-@ThatHelicopterGuy

This week's guest hails all the way from the fjords of Norway! He is a very talented utility pilot, safety manager, and photographer. On this episode, Tom shares his unique journey to becoming a utility pilot in Norway, and the benefits of working as a load master for a few years prior to getting into the right seat on complex utility missions. We all know flying helicopters is not a typical job, and we operate them in risky environments. As the safety manager for his company, Tom has the opportunity to create a work environment that orbits around safety. We really dive into the importance of risk assessments and aeronautical decision making by providing a couple of real life scenarios on how to mitigate risks. Hope you enjoy the episode!
