Thanks for that 750. Our airline requires the pilots to be load control and although we have a nifty PDA we are still responsible for making sure the paperwork is in order and that any discrepancies are resolved before we turn our attention to FMS entries. I totally agree with your qualification that the airport infrastructure needs to support it. I think that you also need to have the staff understand and accept the reasons for reducing the turnarounds to 25 minutes. Simply saying that they do it overseas therefore you should do it ignores the complete lack of frontline staff engagement that exists where I work.
