  Delta equips 11,000 pilots with Microsoft Surface 2 tablets
Time: 11:37 EST/16:37 GMT | News Source: BBC | Posted By: Byron Hinson

American airline Delta is to equip 11,000 of its pilots with Microsoft Surface 2 tablets, in a bid to eliminate paper resources. The recently launched Surface 2, which runs the Windows RT 8.1 platform, will provide crews with key charts and navigation tools via a customised app. The tablets will replace the 17kg (2st 10lb) flight bags currently carried by pilots, reducing fuel consumption. The company expects all its cockpits to be paperless by the end of 2014.
