“iPilots”


Alaska Airlines is replacing its 1,000-plus-page pilots’ manual with iPads for pilots.  Pilots are already excitedly downloading apps to wake them up when they fall asleep mid-flight.

The pilots really seem enthused with the iPad’s smaller size, lighter weight, and that the case it comes in can also hide a flask.

In case of emergency, pilots will no longer have to fumble through multiple volumes of paper manuals, they just have to figure out how to quickly exit out of Angry Birds.

The iPads come pre-loaded with airline rules, airport specifications, and of course, Twitter photos of Anthony Weiner’s crotch.
