Episode 341 - The Future of Air Support: Pasadena's Vision
Episode 341
Wednesday, 25 March, 2026
Welcome to the HangerZ podcast brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS and partnered with Vertical Valor Plus. Today's episode was recorded on the floor of Verticon in Atlanta, at the Vertical Plus booth. We had a great week at Verticon and several great conversations and this was one of them. Today's guests are Lt Brad May and Sgt Dustin Gomez of Pasadena Police Department's Air Support Unit. Lt May has a unique history in the unit. He's been there as an officer, a sergeant, and now the lieutenant of the unit. Great conversation about that. Sgt Gomez talks about his unique situation, and about learning the ins and outs of the air support unit. We also discussed the purchase of two new Bell 505s for the unit. They worked with CNC Technologies to get everything done--the whole package. We'll talk about that relationship with CNC, and how unique it is. You don't want to miss this episode. This was a great conversation on the floor of Verticon. Hope you enjoy it. Thank you to all our sponsors and thanks to all of you who listen and watch. We really appreciate your support.
