Default UAL iPad Deice App

Is a home run IMO. Somebody did something right. Used it this morning. Simple and clear.

It really does work quite well. And installed in less than a minute!

Now, they need to link it to a web-cam for the overwing check, abeam the most attractive passenger.....

New ipad app downloadable in the United app store. It basically walks you through calculating holdover/allowance times.

Back in the day of over-wing checks 5 minutes prior to takeoff, the standard UAL answer to the check ride question of "Which row is designated in your aircraft for the over-wing check?" was "the row with the prettiest girl," or other description I am bound by the TOS to not use.

Everyone laughed, and it gave you a minute or so more to figure out if it was really row 17, or 18....always got confused, because your first plane it was 17, then you changed fleets...
