In any event, while it is true that FO PC's are being scrutinized, there is currently NO change to the way we conduct training on the 747 for FO's. The FSDO observed 2 events only and the PIC portion of the events were only 2 additional items both done from the right seat. This is being done in response to an LOI from the FAA to Atlas.

At the end of the day, who really cares??!! Before we see any change, those changes have to be approved by the FAA and Atlas will be required to provide us the training to be able to accomplish the new footprint. NO doubt that this will probably be what we will be required to do going forward but it is NOT the way we are doing it NOW.
