    Why do airlines let gate agents control the J/S

    I was standing in line at the ticket counter trying to get on the J/S to commute back to work. As I walked up, the agent sighed and pounded the keys very hard as she typed, in an effort to let me know she was pi$$ed off about something. As she was printing my boarding pass, she looked at me...

    Logbook Pro setup question

    I'm in the process of setting up logbook pro on my computer. When you're entering in the aircraft data for the 737, would you check the boxes for retractable, complex, high performance? It's obvious the 737 is all of those things, but I figured that those categories were more used when...
