The test period for the FOM and FM runs from last Dec to this June. We should be able to remove the paper copies of these from our kits shortly after. Test period for Jepps will then run through Dec and we should be able to remove those from our kits shortly after.

Hope we get the IPAD thing worked out shortly. It's holding everything else back.

Special Assignment are for those special people. If you know what I mean!

Now wait a minute. Not one person has said anything about pay for this?? Guys are slipping and being distracted by shiny new toys.

(AP) A Transportation Security Administration baggage inspector at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport is facing two to 10 years in prison for stealing Apple iPads from luggage over eight months, according to reports.

Clayton Keith Dovel, 36, of Bedford, Tex., was arrested Feb. 1 and indicted by the Tarrant County grand jury last week on charges of theft by a public servant of items valued up to $20,000, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported. Dovel is free on $5,000 bail and has been suspended indefinitely by the TSA.
