Thanks for an awesome show, you have kept me awake and amused for many miles. Keep up the good work, and if you ever need an opinion from someone who doesnt have a clue, just let me know!
Airline Lovers Rejoyce!
This is a REAL nice podcast for aviation news- espically airline enthusiasts! Courtney and Max are awesome podcasters, they make you always come back for more every time you use iTunes.
Excellent podcast!
Love this podcast! Max Flight is a great host, Rob is fabulous as comic relief, and Dan does all the work and takes all the ribbing. :-) This does a nice job of mixing three things - 1) good research and satisfyingly geeky detail 2) informal humor and fun 3) (what sounds like) professional quality production I'm a subscriber and recommend it to everyone I know interested in aviation.
