hands off

RichGPilot

means that no f/o will take off or land
unless they have 500 on type
it is now DGCA mandatory
it also depends on the hours of the captain
some come never flying for example the ATR72-500
just ATR42-320, & the landing in this case is very different
& even some companies require that noth should be released
in a way if the f/o has 750 hours , but the capt. has not been
signed off to give the f/o's the landings or t/o's
he or she cannot do it

personally do not agree with this
had a huge argument with the chief pilot & another indian cap about this
i hope no capt gets a heart attack................'cause then what?
new f/o with 433 hours but NOT a SINGLE landing~!!!!!!
damn..........how will they learn
but then again..............we could be talking bout this for hours end
it my opinion...........
INcredible INDIAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
