Default Re: EDCT time changes for the worse halfway into boarding

Definately...When I was on the 170 we always made sure L1 was closed and dropped the Parking brake to get a block out time, even we are still at the gate.

I was in IAD one time on the Saab and we elected not to board as it was going to be over 2 hours...While sitting in the cockpit doing Jepp updates clearance calls and wants to know if we can be ready to push in 5.

I was so frustrated...We ended up have to wait the full time....But life is always easier when they are in the terminal versus the Saab in summer heat.
