And that is why we call it a flight deck now. It sounded too unprofessional when we giggled after we said, "From the cockpit..."

You know what's embarrassing?

When you're going through security while FAs at other airlines are cruising through known crewmember...nothing says "you ain't ####" like sitting there with no belt and taking your computer out. Hell even TSA has KCM....TSA...

C'mon management....pull your head out of your ass and turn this little gem into a diamond...all it takes is some effort.

I don't believe they're being taken out however universal is no longer producing database updates for them after this month.

Not sure what's going to happen but to be honest for most of the northern routes they aren't needed.

They're NICE but not NECESSARY

We never had them at Colgan. Some of our Saabs only had DME on the left side.

Well, all I can say is that I used to fly Dash 8's. Most had an FMS of some kind and a few did not. Without the capability to go direct somewhere made for a long flight. I certainly hope Silver management is looking at an alternative.
