But you still gotta wear a dag gum hat.

Maybe that's our signing bonus...LOL

Baja.

Although it's currently available for one's personal device, read the fine print. In the event of an incident/accident, your device will be confiscated. Also, if lost, must report it immediately to delta tech, so that can remotely erase the manuals locker. Way too much control of my personal device... think I'll wait til the company supplies the device. YMMV.

If you get a GS on reserve, do you get paid deadhead pay on your off day?

I agree. I'm not interested in taking "baby steps" to placate the FAA. Either turn it on with full functionality or don't. I don't want to be sitting at the end of a long table answering some lawyers questions about what I did and didn't do with MY IPad. Look what they did to the NW guys who used their laptops...and they didn't bend metal.

Too much personal liability to beta test for free without the full blessing by the Feds and DL.

Please tie the two together so we may attempt to give you an answer.

Does the GS trip have a DH built in? Is that segment on your X day? If it is, the credit for that DH will be straight pay, no credit which just added to 70 hours. Any portion of a GS trip that falls on your regular reserve days is not extra money.

Yep, that answers my question. Sorry I wasn't very clear, DH scheduled on an X day. Thanks

No worries. I've been there too. The language is confusing.

Maybe there's no money in more capacity dicipline.

Meh, we're doing it anyway.
