But I bet it is actually a shared responsibility of some sort in both cases.
FedEx, we just have to turn ours on and get connected. Allow the two programs to update as needed.
No brain power to figure out what is or is not out of date.
Company and Jepp are responsible for actually keeping the master documents up to date.
Much easier and less responsibility than when posting your own paper Jepps.

I like this one too. It does have various recording options.

The IPA continually one-ups ALPA on important issues.

Looks like ALPA missed that "minor" detail.

Because - if you were - you would know it is against policy to be posting here!

Um, he's not the one whining like a baby at every opportunity. Therefore, the onus is upon you, not him. I suppose you were never on a debate team or studied any philosophy...

You're right. I'd had to have gone to college for that.

Wow, did you guys just turn a thread about UPS's I-Pads into another pathetic, embarrasing FedEx drift?

FYI, most cellphones and table devices that use cell towers are tracked even with the power off unless the battery has been removed or is dead. Even when off, they continue to ping cell towers. Unfortunately, the batteries can't be removed from Apple devices.

Larry Bodine: Big Brother Could Definitely Be Tracking Your Cell Phone

Also I read somewhere (I can't find the link) that the CIA, FBI, and DOD in collaboration with MIT developed a way to track cellphones, even if they were turned off, for a period of up to two weeks using satellite signals and electromagnetic radiation.
