Cog, remember we are a bunch of blind cowboys when it comes to flying. thats why we cant safely fly to Juno. So mayne you want to brush some of that multiple charts, ball notes, terrain plans under the rug.

you are ruining our reckless incapable reputationn.

Hard to believe we're removing the Enroute Charts completely. How difficult is it going to be, say flying to Latin or South America, when you need multiple charts out and folded multiple ways to now be able to find the various ball notes, freqs, FIRs etc on this tablet? And I've said this before. How about this scenario: a typical winter departure out of SLC. For me, I would have out the 10-9 page and the 10-7 Obstacle Dept page. In the book, I would have the dept page tabbed and the 10-7 ramp page "opened". Since we're deicing, I would have Vol 1 out and the Deicing pamphlet out as well. Oh and the big Orange book might be out for an MEL.

Now I'm supposed to replace ALL that with one 8 inch screen tablet!!!!!! anyone else think that's a degradation? I guess most other airlines are doing it so we'll figure it out......but keeping the charts would be a great help I think

Have you used the enroute charts on the Jepp software? It actually makes it easier to find stuff. When you get to the FIR boundary, all you do is click on it and it pops up all the notes and frequencies. Your route is highlighted when you load the flight plan. Wondering about nearby airports..no problem, just click on them and it brings up all the useful information.

Whatever you do, do NOT buy a bad elf GPS receiver with WAAS and enable real time position and altitude info or the auto pop up 10-9 when you land. It is way too convenient and useful, and it is not permitted.

DH home and Holy ****!!! I didn't think the 75 had bad landings in it...take that 27R.

Got one of those in the back of 717 today...ouch.

This probably applies to every category, but ATL7ERB's...get your greens in. Lot's of uncovered trips for tomorrow with one guy remaining on reserve.

Non CAC?

When you mention the "deltanet number" are you referring to the "Known Traveler ID number (optional)" on the last page prior to creating the flight listing?

If so, this information is for anyone who still holds an active/retired military ID. The 10-digit DoD ID number located on the back of the Common Access Card (CAC) is used as your Known Traveler Number (KTN), which is used when making flight reservations. All you have to do for TSA Pre-check lines in the U.S. is to "opt-in" via the site below. (Just found this out today when researching the four options.) :)

Members of the Military | Transportation Security Administration

Does this work for retirees without the newer CAC card? Still have the older card (not CAC), but it does have a 10 digit ID number. Only saw active/Guard/Reserve on the link you posted. You mentioned active/retired above but it wasn't on the website link.

Sorry, I may have spoke out of turn regarding the "active/retired" statement. I was personally told by a TSA individual in DCA last week that the 10 digit number on the back of my CAC can be used as the "Known Traveler Number." With that being said, the sign for the pre-check line stated "active" military. ("Active" including current Guard/Reserve members.)

I would try to "opt-in" for the program via the site, (Members of the Military | Transportation Security Administration) using the 10 digit number on the back of your retired card. Worst case scenario, first time attempting the process they inform you of your ineligibility due to the retired status of your ID card.

Thanks for your former service to this country.

Good luck,
GJ
