Welcome aboard Flight 115 of the Squawk Ident Podcast - Under Condition of Anonymity. Recorded from the Mobile Av8r Sound Studios on the 4th floor of the Sheraton Hershey Hotel in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

On today’s flight Alex D. joins me and we catch up with his progress as a newly minted first officer at “Sandpiper Airlines”. We also discuss a few topics that are currently affecting our industry. From cockpit security barriers to the question, “what would cause a person to exit an aircraft while it is still in flight?” Also, how would you handle a heated argument with a fellow cockpit crew member right before a flight? We find out how two Alaska Airlines pilots recently handled that very situation. And “Blackmailed to extend your flight day?” That is what at least one Mesa pilot is claiming.

So stay with us as we run our final checks and prepare to push back from the gate, Flight 115 of Squawk Ident is officially under way.
