Not with 2 FOs I guess :-)


Some CAs I fly with do walkarounds...most don't..........I got in late on a commute once (ATC issues) and got to the jet 12 prior to push. The Capt didn't do the walkaround and was on his phone...and we were a few late pushing due to me being late, having to do the walkaround, etc....and it was a beautiful day..something about that ramp just scares folks. :-)

Seems the Marine CAs do them.....I guess they remember what it was like in the trenches. Whatever I don't care...I just do them all unless told otherwise now.
