Some maintenance items come down to discretion.

At my major, any crewmember can write up anything at any time. Many times, when I was an F/E, I'd already be out at the jet before the front seaters showed and have numerous writeups in the logbook to tell the Captain about.

Maybe your regional doesn't trust F/Os to write up stuff unsupervised. That's probably a good policy at the regional level.

Gee, I didn't even go to college know the difference between your and you're. You must have skipped English class at Riddle and went out spotting the N numbers of the RJ's taking off and landing.

You are talking about amr correct, or general mainline issue.
Beacuse amr will get 90 seat scope as DAL and LCC and UCAL with 75 seats has, it is the average and competitive as to what they will present to the bk judge.

Incase you don't know, this is everything you need to know about CzechAirman:

He is awesome.

He is super smart.

He started flying at a major from day one.

He works at a major that will never furlough and pays him in gold bullion.

He knows piloting abilities are directly related to pay, and since he is paid the most, he is therefore the best.

Everyone calls him to find out what trips he bid so they can try to fly with him.

He had to sell is Ferrari because it could not hold his ego.

He has so much time off that he has time to log onto an internet forum to post condescending posts to lowly regional pilots (who all suck since they are paid less than him).

And don’t forget he has a BIG watch but he is so modest that he does not bring it up in conversations and just talks about how awesome he is for picking the best company to work for.

Don't forget he bowls over-hand

Which major would that be?
