for those of you that fly to those weired and wonderful european airports no one has ever heard of here is a question.
when you arrive at said airfield and discover a defect, either enroute or on the ground what happens? do you have a "call out" contract with a maintenace provider or do you make a "that al' be alright" phone call to main base?
is the onus on the pilot to make a decision the scratched fueslage is within limits or the reverser should be locked out?
does one seem to find that during the day the aircraft flies around with nil defects and then suddenly on it's last sector the book is full of defects?
the port nav light has failed and it is dusk, oh well lets push on back to base. sound familiar..........i hope not.
