Might want to open your current memos. And perhaps open your Content Locker while on the internet. It will download the memory items for you. (200 pilots only)

Yup... -900 driver. The docs were pretty aligned for a while but seem to have diverged now....

Just guessing, but Content Locker should download it for you even on the 900. I know I get 900 manuals that I have no desire to read. But you can likely browse it there. Just look for the little orange button when you open CL.

The U.S. will face a staggering shortage of pilots

Will the FAA increase the age again or allow single pilot airline ops?

Of course, the government could find a different way to “help”...

The company had to dip down to 200 company time- but was only able to find 130 spots for new hires. As an example, they had to shrink NY 200 by 24 spots, I don’t think the company was planning on that.

A lot of FOs do not want to give up 18-20 days off a month. Unless you need the money why would you?

I suppose. A lot of FOs I fly with are trying to get hired OTS, while maintaining their QOL. To each their own I guess

Theme remains, being captain isn’t what every eligible FO wants, I wonder how big of a problem that is for the company?

Has anyone updated to iOS 11? I'm highly surprised the company hasn't put anything out about that on if we should or not with compatibility concerns..
