The Jepp app takes up about 1.3GB. Company manuals are about 50MB.
Ok thanks for the info! I appreciate it, I will plan on having one before first day of class.

They seem to plan on that upgrade continuing for a while. Throughout training, there's definitely been a lot of: "This is a Captain thing, but you may want to start learning it now..."

According to a guy I know hired at delta in 08 and another at united and another at fedex it is all that matters at this level. Just saying.

But it's cool you OO FOs keeping going with that "you don't need TPIC anymore to go to the majors.."

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

What the hell do you want us to do? Come join the bottom of the list at Mesa so you guys can upgrade faster? I think I'll stay put with my line, 20 min drive to the airport. I'll upgrade in a couple of years, if I haven't already moved on.
