Hello!

Times have changed. Don't give up your kneeboard, ...
Times have changed indeed and maybe it is time to give up the kneeboard. In the company where I fly commercially it is company policy not do do any paperwork below 10.000ft (above which there are no uncontrolled flights in Germany). This means, we put the kneeboards aside from receiving the T/O clearance until reaching FL100 and devote all spare capacity looking out for traffic. Even this way, I alone had three TCAS events during the last six months .

Greetings, Max

I confess, when I asked the question, I thought that there would be some light hearted chat - I never thought for a moment that it could become so serious!
Really?
