So, I got rerouted into a domicile layover (for a rsv taken off the trip and the balance offered up again) tonight due to an LGA cx, and then promptly got assigned the rest of the trip since no other rsv could cover it. I hope the CA likes me. I used my sexy voice most of the evening so I'm assuming so.
It was funny with the new checklist today- "cabin notification- ok your response is going to be...." I absolutely love the new formatting, though. The checklist is finally no longer frankenstein and is an efficient machine. I'm still not a fan of having "as req" on any line on the checklist (rather than the options that the NW checklists had), but this is very much a good move in the right direction.
I'm one of the test subjects on the automatic performance upload on fifi. It saves somewhere around 30 keystrokes. Coming to a fleet near you!
The new international flightplan format is much more user friendly as well. They included all kinds of useful information in the body of the flightplan, moved some things where they should be - like overflight authorizations and which sector control you are talking to; its just a big improvement all around...Maybe not a "perfect" final product, but darn close.
Man, I can type a run on sentance.
