Well written by whomever. Thanks for the link,

In fact I (and most other "soldiers" in this company) have made it POLICY to follow the Ops Manual to the letter eg. maximum taxi speeds (3 knots on slippery taxiways
), ALWAYS use the longest runway for take-off (regardless of take-off weight), select "gear down and landing flap on
glide slope alive (those delayed gear/flap landings cost ME an extra minute or two in salary), start the APU after landing - even on the last sector of the day when you know that a GPU is waiting (in spite of advising the beanies that this is unnecessary).
Can anyone else remember those good old days, when ALL the employees worked TOGETHER to make their Company the BEST?
And it WAS!!
People actually ENJOYED going to work then, and the Company revelled in their annual balance sheet.
As somebody else on this forum wrote several weeks ago,
an unhappy pilot is an expensive pilot.
Yep, the "New World management" has certainly turned THIS industry around!!
