You are right, there are contradictions, but that proves only that I posted from the top of my head and not with the books in front of me and just reacted in a natural way with the culture I had. (Except in this tread on the JAR LDA).

But then again I am having a pragmatic interpretation of the rules. After all I am a pilot and not a lawyer. There are different truths and we all know how they can get twisted by a clever lawyer. A former head of the ICAO performance committee wrote a book about this.

Basically a pilot is what remains when he has forgotten everything.

In other words; how much common sense does he have on his own.

Granted, it turned out that I am a bit more conservative than the regulations….in other words ….a bit more on the safe side and that suits me just fine.

I hope EK will do the same in the future. And yes I did file a CHFR but never got any answer....any idea why?
