Aviation News Talk
We also interview aviation leaders who are in the news in our NewsMakers episodes. In some of these episodes, survivors of an aircraft accident or incident share what they learned.
You can find aviation news on lots of web sites. But I bring you a perspective on the news that comes from over forty years as a pilot. In addition to news, on each show I talk in depth about a pilot skill or safety issue. And I spend a lot of time researching information, so you can rely on what you hear. Listeners have given me tons of feedback, and they say they find the show interesting, informative, and chock-full of relevant content and commentary. They like that the show is to the point and doesn't waste their time.
Why I do the Show. I created Aviation News Talk because, while I love being a cohost on the Airplane Geeks podcast, there isn't enough time on that show for me to share all the information I’d like with listeners. And, as I listened to other aviation podcasts, I wasn't finding the kind of general aviation show I was looking for. I teach flying 5-6 days a week, and often after a flight, I think, “I need to share this information with other pilots to help keep them safe.” That's why I started this show...to provide valuable information that might help save a life (and I've already been told by one pilot that something I told her saved her life!).

Love this podcast! Great information in each and every show. I learn several new things and I'm reminded of tips I have forgotten over the years. This is hangar talk outside of the hangar and should qualify for Wings credit!
The best GA podcast out there. Max's passion and knowledge of general aviation blend smoothly with his professional broadcast skills and voice for radio. I learn something new with each episode. Thanks Max.
Max has perfected the art of disseminating news and views to us consumers. We should all be contributing to this podcast to ensure its continued production. There are not many good sources of accurate and vital information out here so hats off to Max for the great job. Brian and Cora
Iam a part 141 Student Pilot pursuing my Bachelor's Degree and an ATPL with a dispatchers certificate, and I love Aviation News Talk. The information given is pertinent, and the interviews are interesting and thorough. While there are relatively few aviation podcasts out there, I would rate it as my favorite.
I have been a fan for about a year when I first discovered the podcast. Very much appreciate the effort you put in to keep things informative AND interesting. I have learned a lot and always look forward to the next episode.
Nice, practical app for one of the best of aviation podcasts that makes it easy to access show collateral attachments as well as communicate with the producer.

Hi Max. I am really enjoying your podcast and have learned so much already. I got my PPL in 2016 and am always challenged in LA's airspace, where I am based. Your podcast has helped a lot with so many concepts. Please keep them coming! Your App is fantastic. Easy to use and the interfaces are very intuitive. Great job!
So glad to have the long awaited Android app! This is the best aviation podcast out there and is making our pilots and skies safer. Love that you can download the episodes. Each episode has notes and linked stories below, which I didn't have on the spotify app.
Max is absolutely fantastic! I'm just starting my journey toward my PPL and this podcast has helped a lot in many ways: what gear is best, methods, general mindset, safety, planning tips and relevant news. Thanks, Max!
Fantastic App! I've listened to the Podcast for a few months now, and he mentioned the app.
