When you work for a civilian company you are paid to work to their rules. You don't work to their rules you don't get paid. It's quite simple.
I can arrive at an FPSO ( a tanker converted to an oil processing and storage unit) giving a roll figure of 3 degrees and is therefore out of the company limits, 2.5 degrees. I know, and anybody else with 9000 hrs on Pumas knows, that if you land cross deck and convert the roll into pitch that it can take 8 degrees eyes shut.
I throw it away. It doesn't affect my pay. The company isn't going to turn around and ask you why you couldn't do it. They set the rules, that is what you are paid to do. Once you step out those parameters you are on you own. Should it turn nasty then the lawyers are looking for somebody to nail.
If you havn't followed the book then it's going to be you.
