CAP371 - Simplified Version Needed!
Is there a consensus of opinion that CAP371 needs to have a simplified version for the sole use of pilots?
This document seems to flummox the most experience of pilots who have difficulty in interpretating the rules.
I can not imagine why pilots will not unquestionably accept the word of ops/crewing personnel when asked to perform some given task. Instead you have to spend a considerable amount of your time explaining the rules and why they are able to do the duty assigned. If I don’t question your ability to fly the aircraft, don’t question our ability.
Additionally, if you seek advice from the publishers of this working document quite often they offer differing interpretations and display difficulty in understanding their own rules!!!
I do accept that there might be cause to look at the training offered to crewing/ops staff to enable them to function competently, so perhaps that’s where the problem lies.
