Who is Gaurav Taneja aka Flying Beast?
Gaurav Taneja is a 38-year-old YouTuber from Kanpur and has been living in Delhi for quite some time now. Taneja, who reportedly attended Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya, Ghazipur, Uttar Pradesh, holds a Bachelor’s degree from IIT Kharagpur. He is married to Ritu Rathee, and they have two daughters, Kiara and Pihu.
He began his career with Gurugram-based airline IndiGo, where he served as both a first officer and a captain. Flying Beast later joined Malaysian airline AirAsia as a pilot but was suspended for “standing up for the safe operations of an aircraft and its passengers”.
In response to his suspension, Taneja shared a video titled “Reasons Behind Suspension from My Pilot Job” on YouTube. In it, he detailed how the airline was compromising passenger safety to save on fuel. He alleged that AirAsia instructed its pilots to perform 98 per cent of landings in “Flap 3” mode, a practice designed to conserve fuel. Following his claims, a probe was initiated and the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) suspended two senior executives at AirAsia India for three months.
Taneja is also a certified nutritionist and professional bodybuilder who creates content related to fitness and nutrition on YouTube. He currently runs three YouTube channels: “Flying Beast,” “Fit Muscle TV,” and “Rasbhari Ke Papa”.
Taneja has an impressive online presence, boasting millions of followers, including 3.7 million on his Instagram account alone.
