Paper at the moment - amendments every couple of months as the company keep buying more bloody aeroplanes. End up amending 'intentionally blank' pages in order to add a new MSN. Grrrr...

Promised CD-ROMs soon though, on production of a complete set of up-to-date FCOMS. ha ha ha! And they don't issue us with a lap-top either.

We have Company SOPs at the moment, seem to work quite well but due to overhaul soon as we incorporate A330s into the fleet with mixed fleet flying to come shortly. We still follow the 'Airbus' way of doing things though, with F/Os taxiing etc.

As I have experienced it, problems arise when one starts looking at Airbus SOPs and amending them along the lines of: "well that's how we did it on the Boeing". Our company has even started amending the Boeing SOPs to include Airbus terminology and calls...naturally this has completely confused the poor Tractor drivers...
