Tees,
I don't have a problem with following the Ops Manual at all - and I know from experience that some mil pilots have a poor grasp of CRM, preferring the 'I'm in charge, do what I say' approach - it's why so much time on FS courses is dedicated to failures of CRM and how poor cockpit gradient can lead to disaster.
My gripe is that instead of reading the Ops manual and adjusting the particular words and phrases to achieve the same CRM and PM/PF relationship that I am familiar with from SAR, I have to undergo MP training (at a cost) just to satisfy bureaucrats who have little idea of how many areas of military aviation actually worked with regard to CRM.
