He breaks down how CRM helps teams:-Avoid costly mistakes through clear roles and communication-Manage high-stress drone missions (like flying near manned aircraft)-Stay safe and effective in extreme conditions like summer heat-Maintain checklists, battery care, flight logs, and airspace coordination-Train new pilots for field readiness — not just test scores* We apologize for the audio quality issues on the host's side.
