How do you cut and paste from maestro? I can only do it from WBid and it doesn't download the hotels or the start and finish times. They have to be inputted by hand. Do you mean Moostro?

He flys for AWA - they use maestro as well.

But, I'm curious how the maestro-APDL-Logbook Pro syncronization works as well. I'm dying to automate.

The binders and paper come from MGO.ent, whoever that is. Anyhow, I think it's a separate company. Anyone find similar quality binders through a cheaper source?

I only found one source on the net that had "Landscape" binders. You can get them from any outlet that sells legal recording supplies. However, they only come in puke green. I guess lawyers like puke green. I believe the MGO.ent is owned by the same NC guy. His binders are just standard 8 1/2 X 11 with a leather cover. It sucks if you like the traditional jeppessen look.

Oh, well you cannot cut and paste from the SWA maestro. I wish we had a windows based system because maestro blows. However, Cetrix is much more secure than windows environments so I can see why they picked it.

You can cut and paste from wbid but it doesn't have the functionality that other scheduling programs have. I e-mailed NC and they said they will work on it if I send them a schedule. I'm checking with SWA if it's okay to do that so NC can improve the importing of the schedule. The APDL will also calculate pay with rigs but since we are the only company that doesn't use an hourly based system that function is useless. I don't know if that will ever be programed since it doesn't seem many SWA pilots use automation. They don't use PDAs either....

Wow, I guess no one read my thread last week about the inexpensive binder solutions I found.

I also found a 4th solution...order from www.scottleather.com - landscape black leather binders which are much more luxurious that the MGont binders...and only $70.
