It's funny how this section is called "Safety
CFM and QA" and this is where lots of verbal abuse occur. Are you all practising for the cockpit?
.. as it must be, mod involvement is after the event. However, we won't tolerate excessive rudeness, etc., in this Forum. Also, just in case we miss something which needs to be knocked on the head, please have no reticence in sending a PM to advise and alert ...
Back to topic, just to add that it's not just the time on type that counts for captains - it's the overall experience and their general skills. Being a captain isn't just about flying skills, either, though. They don't become captains for no reason - they become one because it is felt that they can handle the aircraft as well as its management.
