✈️ About MockingBird Air
MockingBird Air is more than just a virtual airline – it’s a place for people who share a passion for aviation, flight simulation, and community. Founded in January 2021, MockingBird Air was created with a simple but powerful idea:
To give everyone the chance to experience the life of a pilot – regardless of real-world limitations.
Whether you’re an experienced sim pilot or just starting out, you’ll find your place in our sky.
🌍 Who We Are
MockingBird Air is the flagship carrier of the MXB Group, a virtual airline network with global reach. We operate realistic and dynamic schedules using Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020/2024 and other platforms – and we’re currently preparing for expansion to Xbox pilots as well.
Our group includes:
MockingBird Air – our mainline carrier based in Germany
HummingBird – focused on operations across North and South America
MockingBird Cargo – our dedicated freight division
MXB Academy – our internal flight school for structured training and development
