Who is in command?
Hi all,I'm currently training to become an airline pilot and whould find it extremely useful if someone could clear the following up for me.
With the long recent discussion over the Ryan Air and Air Arran diverted flights, who is actually in command and has reponsibility for the a/c when:
a)taxiing on a taxiway after landing
b)on stand with the parking brake set
during a bomb threat.
As far as I understand it the Captain remains command when on the taxiway but there appears to be some arguement over who is in overall authority on stand with the parking brake set. If anyone could clear this up for me (preferably with SOP information or JAA/EASA regulations) I would be very grateful.
