But when I get the answer I don’t know I never fly them or a crew that strays into non-IL/GLS procedures we have a problem. TK can only do so much for someone who either doesn’t study or is scared to ask questions.
”we have a problem?” If a guy isn’t proficient with FMA displays on a GLS?? Classic. After I finished chuckling at the sight of you being so serious about something that 99% of us never see on the line, you’d have 2 choices. Teach it, or we get you replaced with someone who has more of a realistic line oriented view of training. If it’s not a memory item, you don’t get to look down your nose at line pilots who don’t memorize the book. That mentality may work with a scared new hire, but those of us who’ve been here long enough to know what matters won’t tolerate BS. Anyway, this thread is quickly devolving into something it shouldn’t , so I’ll bow out now.
