SOP's - VFR
Curious how different operators/crews perform procedures.
Someone asked these questions internally where I work with very little response so I thought I would ask it here.
Please answer the following as you see fit… if you have personal reasons for doing something a certain way… please add that as well. Some of the questions may seem redundant, but they do serve purpose.

What calls are the PF responsible for?
What calls are the PM responsible for?
