After the release of Flying Again to abysmal reviews, bassist and founding member Chris Ethridge left the band and was replaced by former Byrds bassist Skip Battin. This left "Sneaky" Pete Kleinow as the only original member in the band. Airborne was the band's second and last album for Columbia Records, as the label would drop the Burritos due to the lack of commercial success just after this album's release.
