I guess you need to know the guy.....he used to be a Check Airman. Most pilots hold those guys to a higher standard. He gave me OE on another aircraft, and was worthless. Lack of standardization, attention to detail, etc.
Last month, he gave me an aircraft with a huge maintenance issue, only to say that it's my problem. He was going to the hotel.
The same behavior pattern seems to be in play here.
