Welcome to the Vertical MRO Podcast, brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS and in partnership with Vertical Magazine.
In this two-part series, Jon Gray and Ronnie Ries sit down with Nelson Reithmaier, chief of maintenance for Pasco County Mosquito Control.
During the conversation, they explore Nelson's extensive background in aviation, particularly his time in the Coast Guard, where he worked as an aviation maintenance technician.
The discussion delves into the challenges of maintaining aircraft in corrosive environments, and the training and selection process for Coast Guard aviation.
We get an opportunity to discuss the unique considerations and challenges that come with Nelson's current role as the aviation chief of maintenance for Pasco County, Florida. Nelson shares his insights on the operational strategies employed during hurricanes, the importance of maintaining aircraft for public health missions, and the technology used in mosquito eradication.
The discussion also highlights community engagement efforts and the significance of networking through conferences like the upcoming Vertical MRO Conferences and regional fly-ins.
Special thanks to our sponsors, Metro Aviation, Rotorcraft Support Inc and Robinson.
