That’s why we have a head shed in the pentagon. How many contingency plan are there for every threat? Having equipment on standby is the done routinely. I’ve packed, shipped, rerouted, unpacked, made ready, then had orders rescinded and done all in the reverse for training deployments as an advance party. This is what a mobile adaptable force does. Protecting assets is a priority only if you’re a business I guess.

Interesting tidbit from the Flt Ops update, iCrew being phased out over the next 18 months. As much as I despise that interface that is a lot of functionality to move elsewhere. They'd have to build up MiCrew to quite a big level. Or I wonder if iCrew will exist in another form?

I was more impressed with the future “excessive APU use” reporting functionality MiCrew is going to have...

Easy to rename that category "ineffective or delayed connection of ground air/power."

NMP is the proper acronym. The customers are going to have to tweet Delta for that one. I haven't been able to affect that in years.

They are finally moving on from DOS based 80's crapware? It must be costing them money if that's the case... I won't miss the triple logon DEFCON 8 launch confirmation sessions to check the uber classified Open Time file.

Real time view of pilots trying to adjust their schedule for next month...

Lets just hope we don't get something like UPS, where they need something like 4 logins (including a FOB you must have to generate a code) just to access their version of iCrew. But with MFA becoming more and more popular, I suspect we'll have another layer of authentication, much like PingID.

We had the FOB security at NWA at one point. Delta will never go there unless it's their/our idea.;):D

Is there any truth to the rumor that DTW-GRU and MCO-GRU are ending?
