Episode Notes:

On this episode of Sailor Pulse, Andrew “Kramer” Tenbusch hosts an insightful discussion with senior CF-18 and F-35 test pilot Billie Flynn and F/A-18 pilot Trevor “Mrs.” Phillips-Levine about the remarkable impact of the Automatic Ground Collision Avoidance System in preventing controlled flight into terrain incidents. Over the past decade, this groundbreaking technology has safeguarded Lockheed Martin aircraft and their aviators. However, the Navy’s failure to implement a similar system across its Boeing strike-fighter and electronic attack aircraft has raised critical questions about its commitment to “keeping players on the field” and maintaining operational readiness.
