On this episode of Squawk Ident I am joined by Rob D. Together we will discuss our trip details in a segment we call From the Flight Line. We also briefly tackle a topic that has been flooding the headlines with the Coronavirus epidemic in full scare! What are your risk factors if you fly domestically in the U.S. right now? Do those cheap masks that you buy at your local pharmacy actually protect you or is it all just overreaction driven by media frenzy?
And in a recent and tragic turn of events, we will discuss the importance of situational awareness and safe layover practices in the wake of some devastating news that a fellow aviator lost his life when caught in the cross fire while on a layover in San Juan, Puerto Rico. All this and more on this episode of Squawk Ident.

On this episode of Squawk Ident I had the opportunity to have a casual conversation with a guest that I introduced on the show in episode 19, Mr. Rob DeJesus. We had more we wanted to talk about, so we decided to make time to discuss how our flight schedules often get torn apart due to all kinds of things from weather events to training displacements. We also explore the difference between performing manual revisions vs. pressing the sync button on the EFB. We even share a story about the actions of a "class act" captain and the power of the parking break. All this and more on this episode of Squawk Ident.
