Why? I have wondered why each company has its own version of SOP’s and similar items. Every time there is a change of Chief Pilot the whole lot gets revised yet again. Why? Surely there should be one country-wide set of SOP’s for operating a specific type of aircraft. This should be approved by both the maker and TC and should be identical at every company in Canada that operates that particular type of aircraft. Instead, when changing jobs, it is necessary to try to unlearn one set and learn another, just to fly the identical aircraft.
The same should apply with approach briefings. The format should track through from the bottom, from textbooks such as From the Ground Up, continue upwards and be used by every air operator in Canada, There should be no need to have different formats at different companies.
