I would have thought battle stances would have been drawn over topics that were more pertinent to the real issues facing the pilots. Oh, I don't know, maybe contract, safety...
Nope. Arguing over EFCA. What makes it even more amusing is that you apparently almost suffered a major mishap because of garbage maintenance...and pilots are 'swordfighting' over proper terminology. Wow. For a minute I thought I was on one of the regional boards.
MG must be pleased.
Thanks for making my point. In your response you've demanded accountability from the training department, maintenance, and there are some two hundred odd pages in this thread demanding accountability from management. Yet, we have a pilot trying to justify on a public board that he does things a little different because that's what he did on another fleet or what someone else does, nevermind it's not in-line with approved guidance. It's not about terminology, it's representative of a mindset that is unacceptable, IMO, if we are going to demand accountability and be taken seriously as a pilot group.
I wouldn't give a s#%t about what he does in his cockpit except that when he is put in a position to explain it (it being ANYTHING outside approved guidance) it hurt's the CREDIBILITY of the entire pilot group and weaken's our argument. Like it or not that is the reality of the situation.
I guess having left and "risen above the fray" you now feel entitled to be condescending and arrogant. Wow! That is unfortunate.
