Like it or lump it, you are on check every day of your working life with CX from the day you join till the day you leave. And I mean all of us from the newest to the most senior fleet captain.

This includes the public visible parts of your non-operating life as well, so if you get thrown into jail on an overnight and it gets into the local papers...well guess what.

If you try hard, your checkers and trainers and mentors will fall over themselves trying to help you. But if you carry on like an ar$ehole...then you will treated like an ar$ehole. No surprises there....

Every thing you do is a check...and is reportable. That is now the nature of professional aviation.

New rules are being used and further formulated to check us for alcohol and drugs. And I predict that not too far away they will also be trying to check us for fatigue and sanity...
