I personally change the trash bag when I hand over an aircraft, and have ALWAYS left the FO’s seat (when I’m in it) or CA’s seat (when I’m in it) with the seat belts off the the ground laid along the top of the seat towards the center.
However, where in FM1 or any company communication does it say that changing the trash bag or keeping the seatbelts off the cockpit floor, are required? It doesn’t. Therefore how can it be enforced? Answer: it can’t be. Is it annoying? Sure, I suppose but I’m not their dad. They are adults and I treat them as such. It’s simply not my place to be “teaching” things like that IMHO.
If I were to go around and start telling my “students” to come back to the cockpit and pick up their seatbelts off the floor, or to change the trash, I’d have to be prepared for them to challenge me on it. And if they said, I prefer to keep the seatbelts on the floor, or didn’t feel changing the bag was necessary, then what? Not enforceable. Let’s focus on flying standard (including no PEDs and using O2 masks)and less on things that Envoy literally has zero interest in. I’m just a “Junior check airman” so what do I know lol.
