Inspiring the next generation of pilots

About FlyingTexas

Howdy folks! I'm Max, a Texas-born pilot with a lifelong dream: to circumnavigate the globe by air. Ten years ago, I started sharing my passion for flying through simple videos, just for friends and family. I'm sharing my adventure to inspire more people to join aviation and get their pilot's license.

The Pilot

While pursing a degree in Computer Science, Max worked at Astin Aviation (KCLL) as a line tech. During this time, he earned his Instrument, Commercial and Multi-Engine ratings.
