<p><b>EP 5 – From the Hangar Floor to 1.4M Followers: A Deep Conversation with Max Comer</b></p><p></p><p>We open this week with a brief discussion on the recent fatal crash at LaGuardia, reflecting on the realities of risk in aviation and the perspective that comes with experience.</p><p></p><p>From there, we shift gears into one of our most compelling conversations yet—an in-depth interview with A&amp;P mechanic and social media powerhouse Max Comer.</p><p></p><p>What starts as a conversation about turning wrenches quickly expands into something much bigger.</p><p>We cover the growing mechanic shortage and why it matters, what a career in aircraft maintenance really looks like, and the often-misunderstood relationship between pilots and line mechanics. Max gives us a look inside heavy maintenance, the realities of the job, and how the next generation can find their way into the industry.</p><p></p><p>But this episode goes well beyond aviation.</p><p>We talk about everything from Lord of the Rings to music, to building a massive online following—and then into something far more personal.
