I don't know RK, in LA most CA's won't touch the bleeds or packs. We have one exception. He's the same LCA that insists on taxing out of the alley on one engine until he blows AA's **** everywhere. If he spent his time worrying about his own ****, he'd be a much better pilot and CA. i know the LA guys who frequent this site know exactly who I'm talking about.
That's why when someone starts reaching over messing with the temps, most fo's are like "Hey! They only give me one switch I'm in charge of, why do you keep touching it when I'm not looking?

Well if some one can't let the FO start the APU when he notices it getting warm in the back they have some extra issues . That said I do expect to it be announced ,i.e. hey I'm starting the APU it's hot.

That's how I do it. It's getting hot bro, mind if I crank up the APU? 99.9% will say "yeah, go for it." There's .1% that'll reach up and turn it off, "nope, too soon." Same ass that blows AA's **** across the ramp trying to taxi out heavy weight on one engine.

Hey guys, as a new hire (and new to the airline world) what important Delta computer programs are Windows only, vice Mac? Bidding software? What about the ground school / systems cd? Anything else?

We are supposed to get Windows RT (yeah RT) devices given to us which will run all of the Company's apps: (pick an answer)
- October 2013
- December 2013
- January 2014
- March 2014
- Test folks might get them in March 2014
- Who knows?
- Jeppesen may simply refuse to develop an RT version of it's EFB
- Microsoft may pull the plug on RT
So, if you are computer shopping ... save your money and hope the Company issues you a bright shiny Surface 2 in new hire class, or shortly thereafter. Welcome aboard.

I totally agree. I like FO's that keep track of the cabin temp, especially on the ground.
Always good to make sure that there is always air flowing into the metal tube.

DPA vs ALPA vs Restoration vs Everything Else
For the next day and a half lets try to put away all the negativity and dissatisfaction. Listening to a fundraiser on the radio for a local Children's Hospital a mom passed along this truth:
"If you don't have a child in this Hospital, you are the richest man in the world".
Instead of focusing on what we DON'T have, lets take time to remember what we DO have.
Merry Christmas brothers and sisters!
