Questions for Delta Tech Ops

[ThirdSeatHero]

Just looking for some info on Delta Tech Ops IT system.
 
Does Delta Tech Ops use an ELB system, or paper?
 
Does Delta Tech Ops use an electronic maintenance system like AMIS or Sceptre? If so what system and how long has it been in use, and whats the general sentiment....good system, ok system, replace it its so bad system?

Went to SCEPTRE post merger..... ahem not my problem, ask a lead *duck*

SCEPTRE was used by NWA, now Delta. It was also used by CO. I think UA stuck with the CO system. I always liked SCEPTRE.

US also uses it.

Thanks for the info.
 
Yes, here at UAL we also are being forced onto SCEPTRE and its not being received well at all on the sUAL side.
 
The system is archaic, the input codes are nonsensical, and what used to take 1 step/entry in the AMIS system now takes 2, 3, or more.
 
AMIS was by no means perfect or even current for that matter, but it was a far more user friendly system than SCEPTRE.
 
 
So does DELTA use the ELB system? (Electronic Log book)
 
sUAL used the ELB through the AMIS system, while sCAL still used paper Log Books with SCEPTRE. 
 
We're actually getting some genuine Pilot assistance on this issue, as the sUAL pilots and those sCAL pilots that have used the Legacy UAL system are pushing back against the company idea of returning to paper log books.
 
 
I have a difficult time understanding how airlines that are ever seeking the next innovation to upgrade or sell their product, still use a computerized maintenance info system rolled out in the 70s.

We use to use Merlin until the merger with HP, Merlin was great Sceptre does suck.
