OK I'm glad someone else said this, because I thought the same thing about 700 pages ago when this surfaced as an issue. There it is: the flight plan, neatly folded and tucked on the dashboard, under the rear-view mirror. Weather sheet ripped off and smartly stowed in the fold of the jumpseat. I looked at it for MEL items, entered the flight plan, checked fixes with the FMS, required fuel on board, and perused dispatcher remarks/NOTAMS. What else makes this worthy of two copies? Do we each need our own?

I'm not fNWA...I get that...but what am I missing?
