Seriously? What does the capt need the codes for anyway? No one I have flown with has ever appeared to give the slightest **** about it.

Guess I've been lucky

It used to be easy to find on the old web pages, but I'm having trouble with the new format--do we still have a phone number to call to ask questions of the PBS expert? If so, can someone leave me some bread crumbs?

Um I do every walk around on my FO's leg, regardless of weather. So I kinda need them.

Captain's doing walk arounds on legs when the FO is PF is being more common on the narrowbodies. Especially from new Captains. It's a good culture change IMO. I believe it originated from the North.
