Interesting AE for MSP. MSP M88B and 320B shrunk by 8 apiece as they didn't backfill a single spot. Meanwhile they backfilled all 14 MSP 7ERB slots...and that category is now 500 numbers junior to the Mad Dog and Airbus! Who knew the 7ER was the newhire's quick ticket back to MSP! :D

Another guy on this board had told me that he was using this device with the tablet so there must be a way. Thanks!

I've heard from my best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw this work at 31 Flavors last night.

Jeppesen FD Pro is the "Third Party App" you seek. Let it pair, then go back to the FD Pro and turn on all the relevant options. A couple of new buttons will pop up to center your map and provide the GPS Status.

So what are we gonna operate on the new LAX to Shanghai route?

The presser says the 777. I suppose they could put an A330-200 on it if the loads weren't great.

I had heard, from the same source :), that the company blocked bluetooth pairing. I think there is a wired solution with the bad elf, is there not? Just not wanting to waste the cash on one if it's not gonna work...

SLC lost 7 total FOs when all said and done, not as bad as the 15 reduction that could have happened... hope it's not permanent and SLC gets filled back up to 100ish.
LAX 73b was a wash, lost 5 and gained 5, so LAX didn't fund SEA.

Overall a very good bid and results for west coast guys! I'm officially happy with this AE ;)

Now let's get similar results for Feb schedules!

Congrats to everyone who made it out to the West Coast. SLC 320A got down to 7400. Gonna be a little longer for the rest of us trying to move to the left seat west of the Mississippi, but glad to see new hires get a chance to get out of NYC...been a long time since we've seen this kind of movement..enjoy!

Question is, did MikeF16 get SEA? I'm guessing he did. Congrats! If not, I'd still move there if I were him as this inertia isn't going to slow down any time soon.
