Not tarnishing all with the same brush but one SO asked why the new procedure for aligning the IRS is not always followed, full align after every crew change. This after returning from his inflight rest, wanting to switch of the IRS's to do the full align as there had just been a crew change. Your leader leader idea would be great here.
Or the FO who used full rudder during the cruise when adjusting his seat.
Or the guy who spent a whole flight planning his venture into dry ice manufacture in Hong Kong as importing it 4KG at a time is so wasteful, how his eyes lit up thinking that there must be no one manufacturing it in the city if it is imported at such expense, and so wastefully, must only be traces left by the time it arrives.
There is a reason why progression happens at an airline and some don't make the cut.
I honestly think the way it is here is quite healthy, most captains let the FO get on with it without much input. Most SO's ask questions during their tenure in that position. The progression and adding of responsibility seems pretty sound. SO, JFO FO RQ CN. Why the sudden reinventing of the wheel?
