I was told in January that we were about to get them, and then the union brought the EFBs into the contract negotiations, so now we won't get them until a contract get signed.

That's ridiculous. The company wants to use iPads as leverage for concessions. I'm not interested in funding their productivity tools.

Yes you are. If you own a tablet, please download any EFB app demo, and be prepared to be blown away. Not only can you save every chart for your pairing as a favorite; but you can also update every chart in the world in less than 1 minute.

The air side kits are just as good as EFBs.

You guys are actually going to let EFBs enter into contract negotiations? Your company is going to get EFBs when it's economically attractive for them to do so. Why would you give anything up for that? My 7 year old can carry a 40 pound bag with less complaining.
