Chinese Airline Voice Recorder Audits

You should know:

Just when you thought the QAR downloads and penalties were the 400 kilogram gorilla in your Chinese airline cockpit, a new measure is implemented: voice recorder reviews of routine flights.

How many of you are willing to let every flight you make be a line check? How many of you are willing to work in an office effectively "bugged" since the company / CAAC can pull the tapes from your routine flight and evaluate your work?

If you are unwilling to accept retroactive line checks via CVR, forget about erasing the recording after you have parked and set the brake. The red "erase" button can be (and probably is) deactivated at your company.

Ask your Chinese copilots, and some will tell you the truth. Others will probably deny it to protect themselves...
