Cheap and small torches which are crap… are still crap :8

You look a melon as well doing it, doesn’t light up the wings at all as the throw of the light is so wide and you’re more or less holding it onto the wheels just to give the illusion of doing a walk around.

We’ve all done it, flat torch battery etc, doesn’t make it any less stupid.

My torch was about £15 online, 2x1000 lumen LEDs, nearly 100x brighter than your phone. For £15… Why would you ever not want the plane lit up like it’s daylight?..

Outpost response is a perfect example of everything a Captain does not want from a FO.

Brief one’s self beforehand for the airport we would go to.

Know how to handle EFB on the iPad efficiently.

Aspire, show commitment and eagerness.

Why does the use of calculator affect you. If you can use the scratch pad to write a frequency or taxi instructions, then why cannot a FO be able to use a calculator? Better to use a calculator then get it wrong. Drop the ego
