Joe Peebles, CEO of Higher Vets, joins Rob and Ian on The Cross-Check to share his journey from military service to business aviation, opening up about the real challenges veterans face as they step into civilian careers, and how Higher Vets is working to bridge that gap. He dives into the leadership lessons he's carried from the armed forces, the untapped potential veterans bring to the industry, and why building real, human relationships still matters in a business that moves at jet speed.

It’s a conversation full of heart, hard-earned wisdom, and a vision for an aviation community that truly welcomes those who’ve served.
