Hey, I am 18 and have wanted to be a commercial pilot all my life, starting for frozen ATPL in September hopefully. This could make a few of you experienced guys chuckle at how niave I am but here goes anyway! I had an idea about F/O limits but I didn't know it was variable and to the point were you are not allowed t/o or landings in a number of situations. I know you learn everyday, but are you not tought how to land in a x-wind or low cloud through training or even type-rating? Must be?! I wonder how many landings F/O's get in the UK?!! Wasn't there a situation where a flight had to divert because of poor vis or something about a year ago, northern England, I seem to remember it being on the news. Anyway guess it's a captain's world.
