    203. Is Commuting Worth Three Years of Seniority?
    Mar 24 2026
    Why is Max recording at night, and why does every aviation headline lately feel like another runway-incursion autopsy? This episode covers TSA chaos at Sky Harbor, a rough New York accident discussion, eVTOL optimism, and Max's descent into experimental-airplane condition inspection misery. In the Mailbag, the guys debate NBAA landing-distance math, hear a loud call to bring back listener stories, and defend Max's musings like true professionals. In Flight Advice, they tackle a brutal career question: keep three years of United seniority and commute, or risk starting over at Delta for a shot at living in base.

  • 202. Would You Start Over at a Fractional in Your 40s?

    202. Would You Start Over at a Fractional in Your 40s?
    Mar 17 2026
    This week Dylan and Max dig into the recent Challenger 650 accident in Bangor and the very real pressure corporate crews can feel when winter ops get sporty. In the Mailbag, they hit union negotiations, whether helicopter flying is actually a smart career pivot, a truly elite ripped-pants-in-cruise story, and a listener correction on landing the Osprey. For Flight Advice, they tackle a big mid-career question: if you had to start over in your late 40s, is a fractional the better move than going back to the bottom of an airline seniority list? It's safety soapbox, career therapy, and just enough chaos to keep things on brand.

  • 201. Why Are Wrong-Airport Landings Still Happening?

    201. Why Are Wrong-Airport Landings Still Happening?
    Mar 10 2026
    Dan Boedigheimer from Advanced Aircrew Academy joins Dylan and Max to break down why wrong-airport and wrong-surface landings still happen, and what professional pilots can do to stay ahead of them. For Part 91 and bizav crews especially, it's a practical discussion on building better habits when nobody is spoon-feeding you the safety data. They get into visual approach traps, pilot monitoring duties, stabilized approach discipline, workload, fatigue, and what actually makes recurrent safety training stick. Listen in, then subscribe so you don't end up chasing the bright shiny airport like an amateur.
