Get a good VPN account and you should be able to use it anywhere. I use VPN for Netflix, HBO Go, and Sirius online radio. I watched the Super Bowl in Italy using VPN and an HDMI cable to put it on a big TV using my iPad. If you get a good website that has tv/movies there are apps which actually save movies to the iPad vs only streaming them. Allows you to ditch the hard drive as well. Or play the hard drive through the app and save the file.

Also, on R-3, make sure you take the full 90 minutes to prepare to ensure a safe departure.
When sitting R-2, how often do they assign a trip and need you at the airport in that 1:30 as opposed to something that starts later on?

In over six years here I've not been called to report in 1+30 once. It's obviously possible to have it happen and one can't afford to disregard that but it's unlikely.

I have a fast pass to see Atlas in BNA at the WIA conference. This is my third time visiting them at a job fair. Im not sure at this point what is holding me back from getting the test. I am a 10 Year regional captain, 4 year degree, no check ride failures, no accidents or incidents. I have watched many many friends go, many with way less time than me. It's a super easy application and Ive paid the money to have a professional looking resume. Any clue what Im missing or need to show them at this next job fair. I live close to CVG and i'm ready to make the jump to a hopefully life long career. thanks

I hate to sound crass, but maybe they are doing you a favor.

I wonder what the delta is between 16% of one's annual gross into the DB is after 30 yrs compounded monthly at a 7% rate of return verse a 5% match on your contribution after 30 years compounded monthly at a 7% ROR? hmmm, a lot!
