SWA might have the correct system. The F/O does the walk the first flight of the day, the ground crews do the rest. I'd guess their ground crews catch more problems than the average F/O who is just going through the motions. |

That's the problem, isn't it? I'd bet most F/Os merely look in the correct directions during walkarounds without even seeing what they're supposed to be looking for.

I'm sure YOU are the only one who is REALLY doing your job, as well. GMAFB. |

Funny how stations like to imply that minor things should always wait until the aircraft goes to maintenance simply because they do not want to deal with a planeload of delayed passengers. I'd rather have my first officer, or myself doing this. |

Get back across that line Yankee, our weather is better, our women are hotter and our food tastes way better.
Right now, go to You Tube, and watch these two videos: 1. Sh!t Southern Women Say 2. Sh!t Boston Girls Say (Last time I posted them here I got a warning from a Mod) Questions? None! Good day Lieutenant! :D |

Years ago we used to alternate doing the walk around. I can't say we caught any more discrepancies that way, but it was just the tradition.
