You will not be issued manuals. You will be given an IPad on day 1, nothing else.

Is this still the case? This gives me hope that we will ditch the Jepps soon.

I was given the IPad back in early December and we were supposed to be "jepp"-less by the end of January.........so yeah.

so coming back from 4 months of leave, what are the odds they give me a fresh set of jepps instead of 20 revisions? didnt think this would ever be an issue since we were supposed to be done with them in march.

You have a ton of revisions, plus the latest word is the 28th of this month for the switch over. No telling if it's actually going to be the case.

Take another month of leave. Worst case, you have three or four more revisions to add. Best case, we've actually switched over and you can start a bonfire with your Jepps.

Do you see upgrades slowing down? Are the people that got hired with 1500 hours coming up on upgrades?

Anyone that says they can give you a clear answer is lying.

I don't think anyone has the data for when the bypassers will hit their time and in what order.
