On time performance is what they really care about. "Safety" its just a word.
who do you work for?
that is not my experience at all.
We take a delay in the name of safety anyday if we have to. It is all up to the PIC but to be frank we rarely need to delay because of something having to do with safety.
Most delays has to do with bags, ground crew, passenger handling, etc...nothing related to safety..........
hmmm..........so that is why the numbers are so high for some regionals
