Hey guys,
Just to make it clear, the thread is not about the decision to RTO. Seems its getting sidetracked to people posting why the captain should have his/her hands on the throttles over the FOs. It is soley to do with FOs views on certain airline SOPs which require the captain to set takeoff power.
Whether the captain has the final hand on the throttles after the power is set is not the point here... I completely understand why that is done, and agree to it, especially on widebody aircraft. Instead this particular thread is targeted at FOs and there personal views on the matter of captains only setting takeoff power in both PNF and PF roles.
Thank You.
