First Officer Limitations
Dear All,
I have been looking for this info on Pprune and managed to scrape a few
facts together, although I have not found a hell of a lot. However, I would
be interested in some more extensive information on F/O operating limitations
in various airlines.
As a First Officer in your airline (feel free to state the airline) what are the
limitations on;
- operating as Pilot Flying in Low Vis conditions (take-off/approach/landing)?
- calling for and executing a Rejected Take-off?
- landing/take-off in adverse weather conditions, eg. x-wind/contaminated
runways/wind shear/etc?
- challenging/demanding approaches like circling approaches/Cat C airfields?
- taxiing the aircraft?
- signing the Tech log?
This thread is purely meant out of interest to hear about different policies at
different airlines. I not trying to provoke a discussion about what is right and
what is wrong and which policy is the best.
Thanks people.
The Doc.
