Smoking on the flight deck, great idea if all the crew members smoke, then by all means smoke away. (In some companies, smoking in the cockpit is almost like being back behind the bike sheds at school all over again. And equally as risky!)
However, I have only one thing to state to all you smokers, ENSURE YOU CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELVES (ie empty the F*****G ashtrays), because cleaning up someone elses mess after a flight is revolting enough, let alone having to clean up your cigarette ends from the ashtrays. By the way, if you are flying with a non smoker, and you ask, "Do you mind if I smoke?" This is like asking your flight deck companion, "Do you mind if I take a S**T in my flight bag?" (and leave it there for the rest of the flight!) Yep, the smell of S**t is pretty much the same/as bad as the smell of burnt tobacco is to some people.
To conclude, CRM isn't just checklist and call outs!
Enjoy.
