I have been criticised sometimes for not having a religious respect for Company SOP's.
My answer has always been the same: SOP's are made by Captains X, Y, Z, who still carry with them personal habits, often pathetic ignorance, and often don't even agree with each other.
It would be great if SOP came from God himself.
The brass in my company doesn't even know of Pprune!
This is the c**p I have to live with:
" An RA may be disregarded only when the pilots visually identify the potentially conflicting traffic and decide that no deviation from the current flight path is necessary"
