Cost index assigned to international/regional/domestic routes are given by the company.
PR uses 27/26. 5J has it's own value. Zest has their own too.

I suppose those numbers are generated by engineers using formulae bordering on black magic. But knowing what the other guys are up to helps in planning our own flights.



It is good to know that whether PF or PNF, the co-pilot can call out "UNSTABILIZED, GO-AROUND"
This is a nice direction PAL is pursuing. The F/O's voice can be recognized and acknowledged.
Bye to the OLD SCHOOL!

So how come nobody called "unstabilized, go-around" on that flight?
=========================

Don't be in a rush to say goodbye to the old school. It's still there and as strong as ever. It seems new procedures and higher standards are mainly for show. Most FO's would rather die than mention to their captains that they "might" be deviating from standard. BTW, the captain in question is back on the line and strutting like a peacock.

Made it again!!!
