Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
I had the same issue with mine and it is a setting that was turned on. Tap on the battery icon in the task bar, then power and sleep settings. There is a slide bar that says "Save me power when my device knows I'm away". Turn that off and it won't power all the down unless it's been like 4 hours instead of 10 minutes
I don't see what the hold up is on the data cards. They are just sim cards... cross platform. They work on any tablet. In the meantime, we've got international crews sitting among the passengers in the gate area trying to pirate questionable wifi signals so they can get a flight plan, weather, and maintenance information about the flight. Every other airline has data. They do their jobs in the cockpit, like professionals, out of sight and sound and earshot of the passengers. It's been 3 years...

Great point. That could really hurt if GA found out after a couple forgetful years. I don't imagine they will garner much SLI interest from FL, TN or TX. I had briefly considered it, but SLI isn't exactly something for a commuter anyway. It is structured more for in base applicants. The GA tax burden is definitely a downside to the job.

Probably not a true rumor. There is a famous (infamous?) tax case from 1929 (Old Colony Trust) that still holds true today. When a third party (Delta) pays a person's income tax on his behalf, the payment is income that is taxable to the employee.

Correct it is taxable income so if you would owe 20K for state tax they pay you 30k total to offset the increased federal tax.
