Thanks for the comment goldstone when u sit at your desk and go home every day, and have reasonable hours and sleep patterns...and dont let little problems like enroute storms, defects repeatedly signed off, slippery runways, and the rest..our life is basically "swing shift"....I do agree that lets give the fellow some time to have a look and get things sorted, but your denigrating comments regarding flt deck are out of order...so next time you show up for a staff travel flight, think about the crews that are making it happen for you that day, and all the GF team for that matter...
