MPL's on Recurrent

I was one of the lucky few of the regular pilots who flew an MPL on recurrent. Bit of apprehension when i got my sked.
It turned out quite all right. Regarding system knowledge, crm and basic instrument flying. All around i would say the guy was at par with everything he had to do.
A little work on flying skills and some bit more flying techniques but that is something we cant expect from a guy who has less than 100hrs of actual.
Left side crew incapacitation is one i didnt get to suggest during my recurrent. Maybe il start off the idea. Just to reinforce worse case scenarios.

Cessna95...Are you asking a question or are you trying to state something?

A year back you were posting like a 5J cadet in CA....now whom are you pretending to be?

All one needs to do is take a quick look at your earlier posts in the CA thread!

Now you talk about bully captains in 5J:

CEBU PACIFIC great MANAGEMENT STYLE

Why dont you go back to your hole?...we can do very well without you in 5J!

Try your luck here instead:

The pilots were both suspended for 6 months. Ouch. But PAL was being lenient with them. The Pilot's Code of Conduct is unequivocal when it comes to continuing an unstabilized approach -- termination after investigation.

The captain briefed the first officer that he would be coming in fast. PAL policy requires the PNF to call out, "Unstabilized. Go-around," if the airplane is not stabilized at 1000 AGL in IMC or 500 AGL in VMC.

Cost Index?

I was just wondering what CI 5J uses on the A319/A320 on domestic runs. PR uses 27 unless the airplane is refueled at an outlying station. In that case the CI is 26.

Good question. A couple of weeks ago, following a 5J Airbus into DVO, I had to activate approach at 90 DME and drop flaps 1 below FL200 to keep from overtaking him.

Since both pilots were suspended for 6 months, that means the approach was "unstabilized?"
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?

Cost index

M .78

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.

If we would like everybody to fly the same speed, route, and flight time then I guess management of all those operating A320/A319 should have a sit-down so as to fly with no complications at all.

But I guess this would never happen...

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.

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!!!

No News!

Nope!!! No new equipment for us just yet!!! Most likely ATR's training in Bangkok.
Well how true is it that PAL is now training for 777?

The first couple sets of 777 crew are back from training in Seattle. The first plane is due in country any time.

The first 777 is due this month. The second one is due in January. Some crew were trained in Seattle. Others were trained at EVA in TPE. I believe they trained 8 sets (capt/fo/so) including the admin captains. I'll try to get accurate data but don't hold your breath. I'm the laziest bum I know.
