Advantages: Anything you put into them can be seen by everybody else.
I'm not dependant on the knucklehead 3 consoles away telling the Flight Data to give me a strip.
A CHG message will update the strips.
Disadvantages: Anything you put into them can be seen by everybody else.
Really only look at them to guage my up-coming workload & because there are some tasks you can only do with the strip.
Desperately useless for any other situational awareness, if its not on the label I don't see it when I'm busy and need it.
