Do you need to have an ipad for first day of training or just first day of ioe? Also, about how much space does the jepp program and company manual take up? Just trying to decide what size to get. Thanks!

You need it fully operational by sim. Be aware that means conversing with the EFB administrator, doing some online training and then waiting for your subscription link to be emailed to you. All of the above can take a week or two, so it is not wise to leave it until the last minute. You will not be allowed to start sim training without it.

The Jepp app takes up about 1.3GB. Company manuals are about 50MB.

I think the most junior captain is a April 2013 hire, or thereabouts.

They seem to plan on that upgrade continuing for a while. Throughout training, there's definitely been a lot of: "This is a Captain thing, but you may want to start learning it now..."

Upgrade times are the name of the game.
