Some consideration please QF
I know it's undoubtedly SOP, and therefore not the pilots fault, but it would be nice if Qantas would consider others and remove the SOP of wing inspection lights on whilst on the ground at night. They are very, very bright, and being as they point outwards from the aircraft, they are extremely blinding to say the least to other pilots on the tarmac.
I've had enough of having my night vision stuffed up. Its obviously aimed at high visibility - but a little bit over the top I think. It is quite simply a hazard to others.
Thank you.
