PRK BRK....ON for landing?
This is absolutely a hypothetical situation and scenario I have thought up which tests crew communication, authority and CRM.
Imagine this.
You are on approach to an airport (aircraft type/airport does not matter, neither does the approach you're executing). You're 2000' and nearing to the runway and you look at the pedestal. The parking brake is on.
Probably a mistake? So you turn it off and leave it be.
Passing through 1000', you look back and you see the parking brake has been set on again. You definitely know that you set it off before (or did you, perhaps your mind is playing games with you?)
However, you are under the impression that your F/O is setting the parking brake. So, how do you handle this situation? What would you say/do and when would you do/say it? During approach? After landing? Behind his back? Keep quiet?
What would you do?
Looking forward to your posts!

Gents,
The Tech log section of PPRuNe is a decent and helpful one. There is a bunch of good and knowledgeable professional fellows who like to come here, share and confront technical data and opinion.
I am against any form of censorship but am also against any kind of intellectual sabotage. Posting such a thread is another Aviophage attempt to turn this section into an open circus.
Don't let him turn you into clowns.

Actually he's also Space Shuttle rated but he did not mention it because he's to humble.
It doesn't mean anything in ancient Greek as the root Avi is Latin...not Greek. Get yourself a dictionary, if you can't afford one, learn how to google.
