Way back on IOE, I remember having a CA who wanted to get out on time. He was one of those early morning guys who was up & ready to go. We took the original van. When we got to the airport, he goes out to the plane, and I follow (seeing as how I didn't know any better at the time). Meanwhile, the FA stays in ops and shows up at the plane 15 min later, pulls me aside and goes "I can't believe you guys touched the plane before XX:XX". Glad I know better now!!
