CAAC to Change Incident Rules

Fellow Pilots,

I flew with one of the Southwest CAAC leaders yesterday and we talked about the Radio No Comm issues in China. He told me after the Tianjin 24 minute No Com issues because of a stuck mike, they had just changed the time from previous 10 minutes no comm incident time to 15 minutes now in cruise flight.

So this will help keep us out of trouble,...haha I feel safe now.

Also the pilots are responsible if ATC forgets to call you at the freq change boundary, you need to call them back or you will have trouble.

The hardest flying you can do is the narrow body jet in China, 4 to 5 legs, many chances to get in trouble...!

Be safe and happy Flights..!
