All of these posts are going in circles. The final say on a mission getting done safely is to the AC. Every reg is written to protect the AC. If he has a legit reason to scrub the mission, he can scrub it. No A**hole ADO can make him, or "get somebody else who can" by the regs. The problem comes from the oldheads not teaching the young guys more about the regs and giving them the info that allows them to tell that ADO to have a sh*t sandwich, sit the f*ck down, and solve the problem. It is easy to try and guilt a young eager pilot into bending rules or making the wrong decision cause they want to do the job. The best defense for them is we as the old head guys tell them. Next time you do a stage where you now they are bending the rules, try to get the word, especially to that you capt or even lt ac that looks like he is scared to death to make the wrong call. If he knows his regs, they will protect him. Good luck and fly safe.
