Being a helicopter pilot in the alps maybe the best job in the world.
Manage episode 405340647 series 3556511
This episode was a long time coming, but it was worth the wait. It was a lot of fun.
My guest today is JB Buttard. He doesn’t fit into just one thing, like many people in the mountains he wears many hats. His day job for want of a better word is he works in aviation. He splits his time between the mountains of Canada and France.
In Canada, he is a helicopter pilot working as a gun for hire wherever the best work is. From gas and oil to forestry and commercial. In France, he is part of the ground crew for a helicopter business that transports all sorts of equipment deep into the hard to access mountains.
But he is also a ski guide, ultra-light pilot, flying clients over the mountains and a budding micro beer maker with his brother just to name a few.
This was a fun interview filled with lots of great stories about his life in the mountains.

But enough of the intro, I know you are going to enjoy this just as much as I did.
So Let's just start the intro music and get on with the show. Allons-y.
