Thank you JW411 for explaining what I thought I'd already said
Silberfuxs - try rereading my last post!!!!!!!
You tell me, by the way, how any crew can in reality check exactly what has been loaded and where
I can tell you that no-one can, not on an 18 seat island hopper, a 50-70 seat turboprop, a 110 seat regional jet or a 280 seat intercontinental airliner. (ps - I've flown all the above)
The crew are responsible for checking the accuracy of the LOADSHEET.....not the actual loading. We can't physically do that. We have to trust the despatcher and the loaders I'm afraid.
