HISTORY

MaxFreight was founded in 1999 by Michael Maxham, who now flies as a real-world cargo pilot. His original concept was to emulate the small Part 135 cargo companies that primarily fly prop, turboprop and some small jets to provide cargo service to the smaller airports. The original hubs were located in Phoenix, Santa Ana, Seattle (Sea-Tac), Oakland and Denver. Over the years the Seattle hub has moved to Boeing Field, Santa Ana to Burbank, Oakland to Sacramento and we’ve added hubs in Orlando, Austin, Chicago and Boston.

SCOPE

Flights out of our hubs cover most of the contiguous United States, Alaska, and Hawaii. We also have international flights to many countries around the world.

Pilots are free to fly any route, in any aircraft they choose whenever they wish. We encourage our pilots to utilize the VATSIM network for their flights as well as to join in our company fly-ins which we periodically hold on VATSIM.

MaxFreight has a wide variety of aircraft in our fleet, from a small, single engine Piper to the huge C-5 Galaxy. We not only include aircraft compatible with FS98 thru FSX but for X-Plane as well and are constantly adding to our fleet.

Our VA provides training materials from our Chief Pilot on various topics. MaxFreight members have access to more information at our forums, where they can read NOTAMs, chat about the topic du jour and even ask questions of their fellow pilots about flying.

PHILOSOPHY

Our goal to keep our pilots happy and flying. MaxFreight strives to provide a friendly, easy going atmosphere. There are no politics at our airline. We are a family of equals.

The freedom to enjoy flight simulation as each of our pilots sees fit is a hallmark at MaxFreight. There are very few restrictions or other strict policies, except that everyone must fly regularly. We do strive for realism, but not to the extent that it interferes with the enjoyment of our hobby.
