If you do not say it clearly then you are missing the point
The previous post of 411A exactly proves my point.

And having an opinion about certain things is Not always hindsight.

411A could keep his mouth shut but he doesn’t simply because he is a concerned natural be it a bit blunt.

But I prefer by far those who have a clear opinion than those that smile and put a knife in your back.

As I am almost sure 411A would defend any pilot against the management if in his opinion the guy was professionally correct.

And that is NOT the BRITISH way of doing things but it is very American.

To quote my chief pilot.

As a captain you are responsible for bringing the acft from A to B.

To do so you have an F/O and AFDS at your service, USE THEM AS EFFICIENTLY AS POSSIBLE and do not overload yourself by not delegating what can be delegated.

Certainly if you feel you are tired, try to be frech when needed and that means once below 300 ft.

13000 + , military and 3 Flag carriers

And yes, I landed last week with 5 tons fuel in the UK on a 737.

No questions were asked.
