I guess this will mean more gate returns since we won't be able to accomplish the infamous "Reset Procedure," on the CRJ 200 by calling MX, after we've left the gate. I might as well just leave my cellphone at home since it has the ability to connect to the internet and can be a distraction. With gate returns and block or better, and one less opportunity for scheduling to get a hold of me, I can see this working out in my favor already.

I use my laptop to accomplish work related tasks. I have all of my company manuals in pdf format. They are both user friendly and searchable. I use my laptop to write line pilot reports for my company. I could write these by hand, but computers work much nicer. The behavior of two pilots should not dictate the rules and regulations for all pilots or flight decks.

Way to go NWA. Always someone who has to go and ruin it for the rest of us.
Oh, by the way, did anyone tell the CEO of NWA about this rap group when he decided to change the logo on the airplanes?
