BTW, March 14th 74 class. Currently at K4.
Thanks!
I gave up a laptop 3 years ago and just carry an iPad. It has everything I need on it. With 128GB I have more than enough space to store what I need. I do plan to get a keyboard but so far haven't found one I think will hold up to the rigors of this job.
Based on Union recommendations and privacy I have elected to not have personal accounts or info on my iPad. I did log into my personal account to download Goodreader because their reader is junk by comparison. But then deleted any info from my account. So that means I'll have to carry 2 iPads to be jeppesen/publications compliant.
Of course based on recent news earth regarding Apple's stance on privacy and encryption you could delete everything. But in the mean time there is a tracking feature in the agent app.
