Regional Airline C&T Hypocrites
 
Firstly, where's my EBA? I can't vote NO until you table it. :D

Secondly, pissed myself with laughter after receiving the latest FCOM update. It says that the autopilot transition to capture an altitude preselect is "isotopic".

What a bunch of :mad:heads.

Seems managers at this company don't even understand basic theory of the aircraft - or basic English for that matter
I'd love to know how subatomic particle theory relates to automation in the SAAB.

Hmmm, are we witnessing a CAE here?

Small airline syndrome. Always been around, just play the game while you are there.

ahhhh....

the best one, was when the Ignominious training manager put out a memo accusing pilots of DELIBERATELY ignoring S.O.P's. An eerie silence prevailed when it was pointed out that one of the SOP's dictated that, in a ditching situation, first action is "don your hat".... yet the company was too tight to supply hats.
FOM's were having a go at pilots for not wearing hats too. - pretty hard to wear a piece of uniform that has not been supplied to you!

and then, when they DID get a supply of hats(at $12 each!) .... well, you can guess how they looked!
