Can someone tell me how the Ipad deal with Mesa works?..do they provide 4G/LTE data SIM card? If not, is it required? What GB are pilots using? Seems like 32GB would be ample. I understand they give you $40/month for it.
If I read correctly...pilots have to provide their own mount?? What is everyone using? RAM Mount?

You don't need a LTE version of the iPad unless you want it for personal use, such as reading your email. The WIFI iPad is fine since you can connect at the hotel and home for Chart updates.
I recommend getting the latest iPad available since the EFB software slows down with each release.
There is a Fry's Electronics down the street from the hotel where you will likely be staying for training. So, you can wait and buy the iPad after talking with those in Indoc with you. You will need it for the first day of Indoc.

No Mesa doesn't give you a sim card. Matter of fact were not authorized for those functions.
We're approved for 2 types of mounts. Fat Gecko and the inhouse bob mount.
Memory, type, etc are all up to you. Although the Ipad 2 & 3 are no longer supported by Jepp. So it's gotta be a 4+

And JO saw that this was good and rewarded the faithful by paying for KCM and raising DH pay to 62.5 percent, and then he rode off into the sunset with his millions...
