21.FIVE - Professional Pilots Podcast

I’ve absolutely loved tuning in to Max and Dylan on the 21Five Podcast. These two professional pilots have created something special, sharing their wealth of experiences, fantastic stories, and invaluable advice. Their episodes are packed with real-world insights, and I’ve gone through their entire catalog with great joy. Every episode is a slap in the best way possible—earth-shattering content that leaves you eager for more! Whether it’s “fake it until you make it” moments or practical reminders like “use it or lose it,” Max and Dylan never fail to deliver. And when they jump on a soapbox, you know it’s going to be both educational and entertaining. This podcast is a must-listen for anyone passionate about aviation!

I’m subscribed to at least 4 different aviation podcasts and this one is by far the best. Every episode is packed to brim of great advice and even better stories. Sometimes, it’s even things you didn’t know you needed like how to incorporate bidding into your kid’s chores! Keep up the great work guys!

The cornerstone of education for the professional pilot. If I could sit around a fire drinking whiskey and talking aviation with Dylan, Max, Nic, Tim, and James while reading snippets of Hard Landing and calling Ted on speaker phone, I feel I would have all the tools needed to stumble through and maybe even thrive in this career. Rare is the show that is professional and informative enough to host legacy check airmen, and then hilarious enough to immediately follow up with publicly roasting the entire concept. And those were just the second and third episodes! Thanks for all you do guys, and thanks for not taking yourselves or this job too seriously. I will continue to point every pilot I know your way. Keep it up! #FakeItTilYouMakeIt

Hey guys, love the show and helps me get through the days of training and I get plenty of laughs as well! I heard yall mention Skygods in the last episode and I would HIGHLY recommend listening to that book instead of reading. Narrator is probably the best non fiction I’ve heard. If you want to dive more in detail about early Pan Am history, Robert Gandt has another good book called “China Clipper.” Roll Tide
