it doesn't work for anyone right now.
but if they restore it, i dont see why psa employees wouldn't be able to use it. It works well for checking status/loads on express flights, but when you start checking mainline flights it would get a bit wonky. i think the two class cabin may have had something to do with that.
anyway, it was an awesome tool and anyone that used it should submit feedback to them via the feedback form now posted on that site. Hopefully we can get it back, this secureflight BS is not making anyone more secure.

Interesting regarding the mobile nonrev site. Not really sure why Secure Flight would have anything to do with this; I thought you could only view loads, not list on the mobile site? Who knows, maybe they could add a feature to thehub so one can view actual standby lists of who's checked in, not just listed. Other carriers have that I know.

You should hope for cx flights not fatigued crews... Fatigued issues can be worked out.... cx flights are dollars and hurt the bottom line...

I dont want to hurt the bottom line...I just want to put as much strain on scheduling as possible and hopefully make it known that they need more pilots and running an airline on this min coverage crap is BS, especially with CA flying right seat

is the truth at PDT. Working crews until they drop = fatigued = cancelled when you're running the airline on the backs of reserves. It will continue forever. Back when we were well staffed was a total fluke.

Airlines only know the bottom line. You hurt the bottom line then things will change. Until then, especially with USairways, min staffing will continue as long as they can make the flights go out.... And PDT allows Captains to sit in the right seat other then training checkairmen? That seems to be strange in general.... We had a few situations like this at PSA, needless to say we have not had a recall happen because of it.
