I’ll add to what Trader said
It is NOT the AUGs ‘duty’ to monitor any part of the approach in a way that will result in punitive measures in the event of a screw up.
Because as far as the GCAA are concerned - those augmenters are NOT on duty per the ACARS duty report and subsequent calculations for max duty limits per year.
This is a total croc of shyte. The luxury of having a colleague there to assist is just that and the Co punishing guys who are wiped out at that stage is a disgrace.
Yes the OMA lists responsibilities but to hold those guys to same standard is so beautifully characteristic of the flawed approach to Man mgt here - that it, well, speaks for itself.
No EPT mount is provided for CM3/4 and thus may not be used in the flight deck (OMA 8.1.13 a. 4.)
No pilot with near vision problems is required by EK Medical Services to view screens from 2+/- meters away at night.
At no point have EK pilots been been trained to PM from CM3 (you can’t even see from CM4). Trainers on the other hand are.
Stop pandering to the ever widening net of those to blame that has been perfected here by mgt.
It’s the Operating Crews responsibility - period.
Otherwise can we please have no notice Line checks conducted from CM4 observing CM3 observing CM1+2 - after we have had the eye monitoring feedback from sim in the CM3 position- all the while making it known to the GCAA - THAT THESE PILOTS ARE TECHNICALLY NOT ON DUTY!
One other point - if any of you guys augmenting find yourself in a JFK situation- IMMEDIATELY write a fatigue report.
