Agreed AoA but the problem remains is it a legitimate duty? I think DOTARS is being vindictive in their application of this ruling, however unless I see a name on my duty sheet I cannot afford to pay the penalty incurred via a breach of aforementioned. I don't agree with it I'm merely pointing out that strict liability penalties mean you are guilty till proven innocent. In order to clear yourself you have to apply to the administration appeals tribunal, I for one have better things to do. Are you prepared to be the Guinea Pig?
It would be great for compromise to be reached, but given how much most people(except those who realise there is more to the job than epaullets and fancy hats) resent Pilots, don't hold your breath.
