Welcome on board Flight 127 of the Squawk Ident Podcast - Going Where the Jet Stream Takes Us

On today’s flight, Av8rTony, Captain Roger, and Alex D. discuss pilot egos and the high stakes of an aviation profession. With the recent report that the NTSB has subpoenaed the 3 American Airlines flight crew members involved in last months runway incursion at JFK, we ask the question, “How does One protect their certificates in an event like this?”

We also discuss High Altitude Spy Balloons, Southwest Airlines lowering their minimum hour requirements, and the dedication of the “Benton House” in Washington, D.C.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the rest of the podcast.
