Post Emergency requirements

"When you are not able to determine if the fire is out it sometimes seems to mee you can do whatever you want do you will have to talk to your chiefpilot afterwards anyway"

For the operation I am with, after any incident, or after any declaration of an emergency, we must speak with our Chief Pilot. If he is not available, we have a pilot Duty Officer who we must contact.

The idea is to have the "team" decide if it's prudent to continue with the flying for that day (also avoids blind-siding the C.P. the next day). This might prevent flying while distracted...and it is said one might not realize that you might think back about what happened while working the next leg. It also might (just maybe) appease the government agency should they later look into why you flew more that day.
