Packs have an "auto" position, why can't engine cowl heat have "auto"? We're being exploited, help help I'm being oppressed!

That’s funny I came outta training a couple of weeks ago they were saying if we are lucky we will see it in 2025 lol!!!

Sounds like both answers are very similar to me.

Not much of an auto, you still have to turn them on and off for start.

I like making fun of Skypest as much as the next guy but it would be absurd to argue that the 175 runs circles around the 737 in terms of ease of operation.

Think Boeing said they expect certification be April-June? So that’d mean they’d be in our bid pack around Oct-Dec (maybe).

I’ve heard the “it’ll be certified by ______” before so I won’t believe it til I’m sitting in it.

I saw that prediction. I am going with 2025. Fool me once...

This has been going on for YEARS! I’ll believe it when they show up at our gates.

I mean, we can send astronauts to the space station and back, but we can't figure out an anti-ice cowling interface.....oh nevermind.
