Episode 60 - Look for the Arrow—Fuel Here, Think Safety Everywhere with Patrick Moylan
Episode 60
Tuesday, 25 November, 2025
In this episode, Look for the Arrow—Fuel Here, Think Safety Everywhere, Jeff sits down with Patrick Moylan, Chief Safety and Quality Officer at West Star Aviation. Patrick brings more than 25 years of aviation safety and operational leadership experience, but his connection to “safety indicators” began long before his aviation career even took off—his uncle invented the little arrow on your car’s dashboard that tells you which side to fuel from.From that clever icon to today’s industry-leading Safety Management Systems (SMS), Patrick shares how seemingly small signals can guide major safety decisions in both day-to-day operations and high-stakes environments. Together they dive into West Star’s safety culture, the evolution of SMS in MROs, and what it truly takes to drive risk reduction across a nationwide aviation organization.Whether you’re a pilot, a mechanic, a safety professional, or simply someone who “always checks the arrow,” this episode offers insight, leadership wisdom, and a unique look at how safety is built, taught, and lived.Join us for Episode 60 as we look for the arrow—and learn why safety starts with paying attention to the small things.Connect with us on Instagram:InstagramTikTok: Destination Aviation (@dapodcast85) | TikTokYouTube:Destination Aviation - YouTubeDrop us a line at dapodcast85@gmail.com if you have your own plane talesWebsites:Destination Aviation - Destination AviationSupport the show
