Just as an FYI, when we received the iPads at PSA, they were not distributed individually by hand. They were all mailed to an address that we provided them (home, in most cases).

There was a process for picking them up from a base coordinator, but that took longer and was not the preferred method.

We had been told the same thing, that they were all sitting in the company HQ for months, but that was just a rumor. A fulfillment company had them all set up for us and they were shipped with the preloaded apps and custom setup guides for our needs.

There is a lot of junk on the iPads from AA, with a special app for all of the company and airplane documents in addition to JeppView. They was all preloaded.

Password should be the same as whatever other drive they have you access to.

Like the hunt for the holy grail, we always came up empty handed.

Looks like 145 captain was awarded to a July 25th hire.

I think the whole 6-12 month range will stay pretty stable going forward. There's a decent number of bypassed FOs on the -145 list right now. Once they start upgrading, others behind them will have the available time to move up. Hopefully, PDT can avoid the direct entry captain pitfall.

May hire here. I'm in 12/28 Dash upgrade class. Another guy that was in my class is already a captain.

Find it kind of odd that none of the rooms for the incoming class have fridges/microwaves. Is this the norm?

Depends on the hotel. The hotels I was in around Dfw at least had a lobby micro. Hey at least you aren't double occupancy like I was in initial 5 years ago. That was a real treat.
