Steve has a message on EZOpenBoard saying it won't work except for a few freebies (seniority list, Where's Waldo, etc) after SOC...but he is working on it..trying to get his program to work with DBMS data..

It will suck not to have all that functionality from my Iphone: book js, check loads, see sched, trip monkey, etc.....hopefully he sorts it out soon.

Yeah, hope so too.......EzOpenboard is the best tool out there, since it's the old NWA IT people lets hope they let him in. I've figured out how to use NavTech to do all the things I did on BidAsst, but I'll miss all the calendar products after you load the award. Hopefully NavTech will produce those products too once I learn it.

One item for the southies I hope we can get sometime, is the hotel info on the rotations. If you download the rotation into the Iphone all you have to do, of course, is hit the number and it dials it. No more keeping a hotel database in your contacts.

MSP is still the best base in the system. Bitter cold = snuggie time with one of the plethora of Scandanavian blondes up there. It's like Kiev x 50. If I wasn't married, I'd go to MSP. Hot women, hot tubs, no kudzu. It is AWESOME. And the airport is roomy, west to east coast flying even on the 90.

DTW is just the best commuter base. Seniority goes further, good variety of planes, smarter trips, cheap hotels with no need for a Q-cab or crashpad.

ATL is a dump, it's HQ, seniority is worthless, it's up and down in the 88 to dumpy FL hotels and so on. Run.

Geeish, I'm trying my best. and I don't think I told a lie.

Are NFL refs getting dumber.

Ferd, the Easybid product will print out all the calender stuff you need. Plus it will print out a flight tab for each flight on a rotation with radio freqs and such.

They even leave the reverse side blank...for when you're re-routed.

(Over all, EasyBid is a very helpful, time-saving product.)

I remember looking at a report put together by the union on where all the Delta pilots live geographically.
I think it was on ALPA boards, but I am not sure.

Can't find it anywhere. If you know where to find it could you please point me in the right direction.

Thx

Hey guys,

Does anyone know where it is written which FOs get PIC typed on an a/c during training? The only info I can find says that all FOs except m88/90 and dc9 will get typed and that was in a welcome to training letter. The DEC 11th AE also mentions which a/c types are required to have an ATP/ATP written when they show up for training. I think this is accurate but was curious as to where it was written. I couldn't find it in the FOM or PWA. TIA.
