You went on a little rant about "lies" a few weeks ago, now time for you to own up to it. Enough with the name calling as well. The personal attacks don't advance your agenda, just makes you look like a jerk as usual.

They're not approved yet. There is a plan to start using them, but the exemption that allows them is changing, so the plans are on hold. If a pilot is using an Ipad, it is without approval. On the other hand, I haven't seen any kind of enforcement of the issue FWIW.

FAR 135.100 requires a second-in-command pilot for operations under IFR. FAR 135.105 provides an exemption for single pilot operation if there is an operable autopilot and the company jumps thru a few hoops.
If the aircraft dispatches with the autopilot inop, then the regulations require the second pilot, and that particular SIC time would be loggable for all purposes, including qualifying for the ATP.

The autopilots are deferrable for single pilot cargo operations, no SIC required with the exception of Canadian operations. Jetlife has no insider information, only outdated and second hand info. He left a now extinct base years ago. The company was sold and management has virtually flipped. Funny thing is, the guy I thought he was really mad at left earlier this year.

You can sell anything you want online, the lack of people coming in the door, and the flood of those leaving should speak volumes. But you're right, I have no insider information lol. All the airplanes are expertly and professionally maintained to the highest caliper humanly possible. They aren't clapped out hunks of bolts. For somebody that works for AMF you really live in a bubble, which isn't a shock as you are 1 of only 6 happily employed management types out of the thousands that have gone through the doors there.

There are unionized carriers out of CVG who threw in their support and didn't fly their routes either (ie Southern), good for them, sounds like a worthy cause to me. Agreed you don't pick up struck work, but the idea that they can mark you as a scab for flying your own contract... someone explain it to me, I'm listening.
