Helicopter Association International’s Pilot of the Year, U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Lt. Cdr. Robert McCabe, did not set out to be a pilot. He joined the Coast Guard to become involved in humanitarian and search-and-rescue work, HAI said. But when assigned to a ship in Astoria, Oregon, he was inspired to become a pilot after watching Sikorsky MH-60T Jayhawks perform rescues. He attended flight school and returned to Astoria in 2012, this time as an MH-60T pilot.
