SOPs great in theory and wonderful if used in practice.......
..however.....
There appears to be a genuine difference in adherence depending upon fleet !
Whether we like it or not, we have substantial cultural, experience level, language and motivational differences in KA and SOPs let us;
1. All sing off the same page
2. Help identify SA breakdowns
3. Maintain the BRILLIANT SAFETY when tired
So guys & gals !! If the Management do not want to be professional, that is their problem.... We must ALWAYS be standard & professional ...
That's what our punters pay for & that is why the pilots and the DPA will succeed !!!
