Training Vs Instinct: The life of a Fast Jet Pilot with Paul Heasman

In this episode, we dig into the life of a fast jet pilot with
Paul Heasman. Paul speaks candidly about Crew Resource Management
(CRM), the line between training and instinct, OODA loops,
decision making, and much more.





Paul joined the Air Force in 1999 and went through training
through various aircraft types. Paul then flew the Tornado F3
from RAF Leeming for three years before being selected for
instructional duties. He progressed to RAF Valley on Anglesey,
spending eleven years flying the Hawk Trainer, initially the Hawk
T1 before being selected to bring the Hawk T2 into service. It
was at this time Paul became interested in human performance and
became an RAF aircrew performance coach. Recently, with Draken,
Paul became a CAA CRM instructor for the business and facilitated
CRM discussions as part of aircrew routine training. To follow
