ULM,
Don't get personal. Not nice!
The whole AFM issue is a mess. On again off again. It was fine the way it was and the new way achieved little that I could see.
This often happen these days. Suddenly we get a new "thing" to do.......all in the name of safety. Rubbish.
Have you had time to have a look at the MEL issue? Try reading between the lines if you have a radio or GPS U/S. Must be fixed in "X' days.
But the AIP says you only need such and such.
I praise those who highlight the nonsense in an effort to get some commonsense back into the game........not muscle-bound, baseball wielding people with agenda's quite different to yours or mine.
Have a calm day
