FWIW, I personally spoke with KF, the manager of Flt Ops tech, and he said the “sign in mech” was 100% driven by the FAA POI, and they had relented on the “airdrop or passing around”requirement. Each pilot will simply sign their respective app.
That said, why the FAA won’t allow ACARS pins like other airlines have had for 10 years is beyond me.
