Not honest
Previous poster is disingenuous.QAR abuse and SOP overkill are directly proportionate to automation-reliance and for obvious reasons.The more you hamstring a crew,the less free they will feel to fly and risk losing their job by busting a parameter.Maybe it doesnt happen in BA(although Ive never ever heard a Nigel offer to do a visual to alleviate the queue behind them..why is that I wonder?)but QAR's have been used to punish/intimidate/even fire crews worldwide.
It is actually rampant in Asia.
