Quote: So this IPad has a data plan right? I was never issued an airport express or any other kind of wireless router, so how am I supposed to set this thing up or even update it on the road internationally...
Every pilot-issued iPad will be paired with a mobile data plan. This plan allows for up to 3Gb of data per month. Mobile data use is for company business only. You will want to use Wi-Fi networks as a first priority to conserve your data allotment. When Wi-Fi is not available, and for
operational efficiency, use mobile data. Enable LTE to utilize faster network speeds where available. Leave Data Roaming OFF. Roaming data costs are extremely expensive, and will be automatically monitored. If you incur roaming charges, they will need to be justified to Flight Management.
