Flight 94 - JetPacks and ACS


Listen Later

recorded on 09NOV2021

Welcome aboard Flight 94 of the Squawk Ident Podcast - JetPacks and ACS. On today’s flight we explore the FAA's intention to have CFIs stop using PTS as an evaluation tool and replace it with ACS or Airman Certification Standards.

We also discuss nineteen-year-old, Zara Rutherford, and her world record attempt to become the youngest woman to fly solo around the world.

And YES!, He is back…JETPACK MAN! We have an update on the southern California sightings.

American Airlines recently announced that it has increased flight attendant holiday pay by 300% after a recent operational meltdown. We will have our analysis on the what we can expect this holiday season.

And, in a pandemic milestone: U.S. ends international travel ban, opening the door to vaccinated tourists. This is a huge step forward for aviation here in the U.S.

All this and more onboard Flight 94 of the Squawk Ident podcast.
