411A's farcical comments
fergineer, thank you. As professional F/E's we both know why we were/are employed. Commanders who conduct themselves as his comments suggest 411A does are, fortunately, very rare. As for writing up snags, of course the PIC was always made aware of what was to be written up. Like yourself I am unable to recall ever having had a PIC demand that a defect not be written up and I know that almost all Captains accepted the advice coming from their F/E's when it came to the technical aspects. I am very proud of my contribution to aviation and I know that my role was an integral part of the operation.
