Great ! , so tell me pls. how does your company interpret and implement this .
PF will get the clearence himself when he gets to that point in his flow to do so, weather the other pilot is or not in the cockpit ?
What do you interpret then when on the PNF flow it also states ,ATC clearence obtain.
From the PF ?
Is that the way it's meant to be ?
Generally speaking I don't have throuble with Airbus SOP's , curious abaut this one...
