But not a car accident.
If that's the only protection they say they will give you, just ask yourself, what would happen if they denied my claim that it broke during normal 'use'. You have no LOA protecting you from anything. |

In the real world, companies don't make you pay to protect expensive company property. It only happens when regional pilots like you have no backbone.
The company has been supplying nice Jepp binders where you can tear and spill on those pages and not have to worry about a thing. If you have to replace them, you have the option of this thing called the internet and a crew room printer. Of course free replacement and $700 is the same thing for a first year FO. Just so we are clear, I think we all want and need an LOA on this for both privacy issues and damage. I think the company would be wise provide a protective otterbox style case. Until then, for the price of a couple beers in Canada, I have the option take adequate care of the property the company issued to me, in the same way you and I have both taken care of the Jepp charts issued to us, and protect myself from a $600 bill in the process. |

No, you swiped your card, and bought a case for somewhere between $150 and $300 to protect $200 worth of company owned Jepp charts and binders and never looked back. Now the company has issued you a $600 Ipad and you balk at the idea of voluntarily spending $20 to protect it, and devolve into childish name calling of your fellow pilots.

Don't waste your money on a non company approved case.
Make a good faith effort not to break it and I'd say you'll be covered under CBA 26.d. Since it's our duty to charge it and update it and you were doing that... Not playing catch... When it broke. What's the problem? I'm all for a LOA with stronger language. |

Break your Ipad, your personal bought case will do nothing to insure you against a $600 claim if the company decides to charge you. Good luck printing a new Ipad on the company crew room printers. |

Speaking of which, have we been told when the change is going to be made? I assume it's ADTG until August, correct?

This thread used to be much better. Lately it's turned into a *****-fest.
404, You have a lot of good comments. If people don't want to listen, that's their prerogative. Everybody else, Leave him alone. You are poking the beast! I'm sick of reading the 5 of you arguing back and forth. Y'all are turning people off to compass airlines. |
