My airline gets PDC's thru the ACARS. Sometimes when we don't receive the PDC as late as 15 minutes prior to departure (they'r enormally available about 30 mins prior), the CLNC delivery people get all preturbed and ramble on about how they send the PDC and to check it again in 10 mins.

Generally 5 minutes prior to departure, Im pretty time compressed between last minute paperwork, getting the final data entered into the FMS and if the PDC doesn't actually arrive, it just cluster-screws teh operation.

Guidance?
