‘Back in Service’ with a Supermoon, Episode 13!

🎥 Watch the full episode and go behind the scenes with SkyEye 13 below.

Some weeks are quiet in aviation maintenance. Others remind you just how quickly everything can change.

Episode 13 of Back in Service takes you behind the scenes with the SkyEye 13 flight crew during a week that started under the glow of a supermoon and quickly turned into nonstop breaking news coverage across Houston.

From aerial views of the supermoon lighting up the night sky to responding to multiple crash scenes, this episode shows what it really takes to keep a television news helicopter mission-ready. When the call comes in, there’s no pause button — the aircraft, crew, and maintenance team all have to be ready.

As someone who lives this world, I wanted to share more than just the beautiful shots. This episode highlights the long hours, fast decisions, and behind-the-scenes work viewers never see — the inspections, coordination, and teamwork that keep SkyEye 13 safely in the air.

Whether we’re capturing a rare moonrise or flying above active scenes to bring critical information to viewers, every flight tells a story. Episode 13 is about those moments — calm, chaos, and everything in between — all from the cockpit.
