Line Check. A typical job is to
ensure that new pilots joining the
company have their paperwork done
correctly. More about Quality in
Chapter 3.
The Company Pilot
In small companies, it will be policy
to operate on a single crew basis as
far as possible (less wages to pay),
with the designated Commander
occupying the Captain's seat as per
the Flight Manual. It's therefore
important to maintain your own
standards, because you'll be on your
own a lot.
You may think it a little over the top
to see somebody with large amounts
of gold braid emerging from a small
aircraft and be wondering on what
occasions you can call yourself
“Captain”. As far as I can make out,
it used to be a convention that if you
had either 5000 hours, an ATPL of
some description or a Training (IRE)
qualification, you were entitled to do
so. The trouble was that as smaller
airlines became popular, they didn't
have people so qualified and
passengers were wary of flying with
pilots who didn't have the shiny stuff
on their sleeves. Thus, the various
rank gradings have become blurred
and you're a commander (small c) if
you're in charge of any aircraft, in
the same way that people in charge
of smaller seagoing vessels are Ship's
Masters, as opposed to Captains.
You may also be wondering why the
commander has to be designated –
this is so the Subsequent Board of
Inquiry can pin the blame on the
right person. In the USA, for
example, under certain
circumstances, four people can claim
PIC time, including those in the
passenger seats! This would naturally
include whoever is doing the poling,
but if someone in another seat has
better qualifications, or is the owner
or operator, that would qualify, too,
especially in court (so watch it).
Certainly, in the military, the Captain
has never been necessarily the first
pilot (it could easily be a senior
officer in a passenger seat), since the
Captain is responsible for the final
disposition of the aircraft (which,
when you think about it, could also
include a purser). So, there is a
difference between acting as PIC
and logging PIC time, and it should
be spelt out clearly to save legal (and
CRM) trouble later - having two
Captains on board, with neither sure
of who's in charge can be a real
problem. Either they will be scoring
points off each other, or be too
gentlemanly, allowing an accident to
happen while each says "after you".
How do you sort out the mess if you
have someone in the left seat who is
a First Officer pretending to be a
Captain, and someone in the other
18 Operational Flying
seat who is a Captain pretending to
be a First Officer?
Anyhow, as an Aircraft Commander,
you are first and foremost subject to
any Air Navigation Orders or
Aviation Regulations that may be in
force. Inside the Company, you are
responsible to just about everybody
else (but especially the Fleet/Base
Manager or Chief Pilot) for ensuring
that aircraft are flown with prime
consideration for the safety of
passengers and persons on the
ground; not negligently or wilfully
causing an aircraft to endanger
persons or property while ensuring it
is operated in accordance with
performance requirements, Flight
Manuals, checklists, State authority
regulations, the Operations Manual,
Air Traffic Regulations, The Air
Pilot, Aeronautical Information
Circulars and NOTAMs.
Seems a bit much, doesn't it? Hang
on.......
It's also up to you to keep your
licences and personal flying
logbooks up to date, and to ensure
you are medically fit for your duties
(a Board of Inquiry or insurance
company may interpret the words
“medically fit” a little differently
than you think if you fly with a cold
or under the influence of alcohol).
You must keep customers and the
Company informed of any accidents,
incidents and alterations caused by
bad weather or other reasons. In
remote areas, this will include a
position report every hour or so.
Yours is the final responsibility for
supervising the loading, checking
and refuelling of your aircraft and
making sure that all passengers are
briefed on Emergency Exits and the
use of safety equipment (see later),
although you also have the right to
exclude certain persons, such as
drunks, etc.
You must check that the aircraft is
serviceable with a current Certificate of
