Up at 11:11 CDT (Sort of)

I was just able to log into the pilot web page. Email and Flight Planning links not working yet, but I was able to get to my calendar.

FWIW

My guess is they tried to put the MOAB into the system. With a 2 year training cycle.

But, Fauxhunter and his posse hacked the system and brought it down to save themselves from 2 years in the backseat.

...I think this blows and then I'm sure we'll get some message about the VIPS outage and that the bid still opens as planned and closes as planned, but we all get just that much less time to do our bidding.

Frustrated...

WM

Uhhh...The monthly bid doesn't even open, in MEM, until 1800LCL Melvis time tonight.

But yes, I also think everyone is against us.

Kinda the way they use to rob parts from the "dog machine" for the "cake dryer"

Is the Optimizer a NO T/O item?

Were some DPs added to OT and the trip trade system overloaded and crashed?

Website Outage

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As most of you know, the website is recovering from a major system outage. The loss of the primary database server due a hardware failure caused a cascading failure that we are still recovering from.

We expect webmail and access to Training and Standards to be up by 1700 CDT.
