I can’t recommend this podcast highly enough to anyone who is or aspires to be a professional pilot. I’ve been listening for over 3 years.
From industry updates to career advice to gear reviews and layover guides, it’s a great way to get plugged into the industry.
Interesting guests, but I could do without all the musings.
This one is now at the top of my weekly podcast (and I’m a cohost of a different Aviation podcast). I’m currently in the search for a flying job as a career 2.0er.
Great discussions every week about a wide variety of topics and great guests. Ep 193 with James O’Nieal cinched up the deal for me to sign up for their concierge program.
Thanks for the great pod!

Dylan, Max, Khaleesi and Reggie!

First off seeing the show morph over the years really shows the “flexibility” you guys have to stay ahead of typical aviation podcasts out there. Always love whenever James O’Niell or Timothy Pope comes on because the amount of knowledge ... more
So, I’ve been listening since day 1. You two have a fantastic product that covers every facet of professional aviation. And, it keeps getting better. Both in production and content.

ps. Max’s musing is F’n gold!!!
