Dear Collegues,
just to keep you in the loop, as notified ,we have officially started the Pilot Transit Check concept on selected A320 outstations today. There are some destinations in the network, where no Line Maintenance is available and the Flight Crew shall conduct the transit walkaround.

The next step is to qualify all A330, A340 and B777 pilots in order to give us flexibility for diversion to airports where we do not have Maintenance contracts.

Sounds nice isn't

Just for those who wonder, Daily Doha, and Daily Trivendrum seem to be considered as exceptionnal destinations where EY can't afford to pay for a local engineer nor a riding engineer.
That must be so difficult since no Airbus operator is in Doha , neither in Tirvendrum .
