Flight 30 - Economic Turbulence Ahead?

Recorded on the 4th of March, 2020 On this episode of Squawk Ident, I am joined by my co-host RobD. Together, we discuss some of the factors that continue to adversely affect the aviation profession and how they could potentially create a big problem for an aviator's journey in todays market.  First, we take another look at the 737-Maximus. Will it return to the flight line as we have come to know it, or will it be rebranded? We then look at how the CoVid19 state of emergency might just be the next big economic disaster for the airline industry. And, does art imitate life? We look at a few films and novels from the past that are eerily familiar to the headlines of today.
