Disagree old chap.
Just as I thought. Customer relations appear to override safety considerations in a few outfits. NJE appears to no exception.Your post has just confirmed it.
If the PIC was out of his seat and it could be proved it was a contributing factor leading to an intercept, then it's a "hanging offence". Period. Have you forgotten what happened on 9/11?
Maybe you are the type of guy that blames the SIC, if there is an incident when you are out of the seat wiping some owners a***.
