No AQP. No EFB (yet). Still paper. Groundschool systems utilizes an Apple app called Ethos. Newhires are assigned an iPad with which you can setup your company email, download company manual PDFs like our FOM, FCOM, MEL, other training materials..... Our FCOM (Flight Crew Operating Manual) is our current Q400 bible. Limitations, checklists, flows, aircraft systems, etc... I would say the PDFs are our poor man's paperless option for now. Operationally speaking, our releases, weather, NOTAMs are still on paper. Luckily our Jeppesen charts are Hawaii only so we carry a small binder.
