This is a " convenient " interpretation of the captain discretion.
The captain is supposed to ask all the crew member if they are fit to fly into discretion BUT can not decide for them or worse force them to fly.
So your OMA says he has to “ask” and not “take into consideration”?
Your OMA also states that he cannot decide? The reason I ask is that our FDPs are quite closely alligned and I find it interesting that FD would take the decision away from the Capt.
Can you clarify.
