Would you have the same opinion if your life depended on her actions during an emergency?
Interesting question insofar as......
I'm asked to familiarise myself with exit options (I always do...call it SLF Pre Flight check if you like, when I'm not actually flying..)
Can I operate an exit row...yes....
I know why the the blinds are up for take off and landing...and I know what to look for....
essentially she and I would be on the same page...in an emergency my life depends on what I do...not on her OR HIS actions...but then again I educate myself...
My only real problem is for all the 'Show' during certification....I'd really like to see a cabin full evacuate in 90 secs in real time....Ha!!
