In this episode, I sit down with  Keli Kaaekuahiwi, a recently transitioned A-10 pilot with aviation in his DNA—his grandfather and uncles paved the way, making the cockpit feel like home from an early age. We explore his upbringing, what drew him to the Air Force, and how missions supporting troops in contact (TICs) left a lasting impact on his worldview.

We met through mountain biking, but this conversation takes a winding path from legacy and purpose to the weight of combat and the transition to life after service. Join us for an honest, unscripted journey through the mind of a combat pilot reflecting on where he’s been and where he’s headed.
