I have yet to see a flight where ALL of the information was correct. I've used Vector on every flight I've operated since it was released, and on every flight, something was wrong. Most of the time I can't see the flight release (even though it's well within an hour prior to departure, and the captain can see it), the crew information is wrong (I had a flight with four captains assigned to it...not jumpseaters), and once I was shown the maintenance info for the wrong airplane.

I was really hoping this would be a solid first step toward going truly paperless, but it seems like we fell on our face.

Time to revive this thread from the dead. So an update was finally released to fix all those glitches we were experiencing. Well I can’t even get past the log in screen without getting an error LOL.

I’m like the rest of the pilot group and don’t use Vector but found it funny that the muched needed bug fix update hasn’t done anything.

And you’re using the Tunnel VPN?

So far I’ve found that it works much better. Faster loading and a lot less buggy.

When Vector Vicktor came out I suggested that we put the 'auto verify' link on the app so you could monitor the loading.

I (finally) got an email back that said the powers that be didn't want autoverify in the vector victor app because they didn't want crews using it as a step-to-the-jet application.

.... and what do they do now when the sort is delayed???? ... "use auto verify to check the loading status of your outbound flight...."

I tried.....

Bookmarks in the browser app do the job much more efficiently. It's much faster, more accurate, and more reliable. I only play with Vector now if I have time to kill, AND I'm bored.

While you're making your bookmarks, make one for Gatesheet Lite. Lots of useful, handy information about your jet, especially when it's broken. (home.fedex.com, Keyword: "gatesheet". Make it all lowercase. Our superpowerful search engine doesn't recognize the same word with first letter in uppercase. Go figger.)
