In this two part panel style conversation, Jack Schonely and Jon Gray bring you a unique conversation featuring a Canadian panel of public safety aviation experts. Together, they share their diverse backgrounds and experiences, shedding light on the vital roles they play within the public safety aviation community.

Our discussion revolves around the importance of training and skill development, particularly for tactical flight officers (TFOs), as they navigate the complexities of their responsibilities during critical incidents.

We’ll explore how technology is transforming the landscape of law enforcement aviation, and discuss the collaborative efforts that enhance operational effectiveness across various aviation platforms.

The panel addresses pressing topics, including the impact of the mass shooting in Portapique, Nova Scotia; the vital role of the Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK) in situational awareness; and the challenges posed by weather conditions in public safety operations.

They’ll also share best practices for survival kits designed for extreme weather scenarios and the importance of ongoing education through diverse training environments.
