The only issue is that we use the full European FCOM which can be a little confusing and very extra on the callouts. No other airline says "checked" to everything like we do and constantly talk over each other with extra callouts. Very few airlines read every FMA change like we do.
Now our every 6 month job interview? That's another story. Often it's like they are just making it hard on purpose. If only we had AQP.

The new hires i talk to have been pretty impressed with Ed. He does have an impressive resume and knows his stuff. I hope management doesn't grind him down to the point that he leaves...
Hopefully he sticks around long enough to make some permanent changes that will last.
