Had an FO point this out so I called called mx, told me it wasn’t needed, referred them to the GMM because i was clueless and just want a legal airplane, long story short mx had to fix It ... had no idea about this but it’s in a manual we have, and I was shown it was needed, not much of a choice. Food for thought if you have that 117 coming up and want that layover. I just think we should fix the stupid stuff here before It gets out of hand.
I’ve called for that before.
That was kind of point. It’s our responsibility to make sure it’s a legal aircraft and we do check the emergency equipment, but how in depth do we go.
FAA has made a stink about those stickers before. Which is why I’m pointing out we haven’t had any real guidance on them.
As pilots we typically don’t look at the GMM
