Any college intern can trend....
The only thing that irritates me is your level of complete ignorance of what can happen on the famous game of "chicken" that union members play to slow down a company.
Let me restate myself in a method you may or may not understand. You go ahead and write anything up to your heart's content that you perceive to be unservicable or unairworthy.
Use any checklist you want, including those that you find on the web that are detailed to the point where items that are outside of the ordinary are detailed.
But, don't go whining when you discover that the company has been trending unusual write-ups from PICs that are out of the ordinary. These write-ups become outliers and stick out like a sore thumb. The more outliers you write up, the easier it is to trend and match up with what is lifted off the few public message boards that are out there.
There are a couple of unions and a number of pilots that have been personally sanctioned and fired over the years because they decided that what they chose to write up was fine by all the flight crews ahead of them but always seemed to be a problem when they took the airplane.
You can't hide from the trending or stats. If you are the only one writing up certain items and it happens on every aircraft you happen to fly, you are either calling the flight crew ahead of you stupid or you are the stupid one to think nobody can trend it or notice.
Once again, I encourage you to post those lists and complete your preflights in any manner you choose. If you want to think you can't get pulled aside, maybe you need to once again go through the history on these to see how hard the courts have come down on those individuals who have taken their perception to a level their co-workers haven't.
Oh, and one last note. I know exactly what I'm talking about. You are the one that thinks you are getting away with something based on your false security blanket that the PIC has the final word on a write up. You aren't, you just another union fool willing to be led down a primrose path.
Sonny boy??? I must have irritated you....good.
Where did you read that I would write up an aircraft that was not broke? What I said is that the crew is allowed to inspect the aircraft regardless if the item is on the checklist or not. The company has it stuck in their head, that there are all these illegal checklists everywhere, I have never carried one or saw another pilot with one. See, all that info is our heads. However, if I did carry one, I would show it to anyone who asked.
As far as the court cases, I don't care, I am a pilot not an attorney. Every item I have written up has been broke and a good write-up. Furthermore, I will pre-flight my aircraft exactly the same regardless of union and company relations. I am a professional and I pride my self on being a safe pilot. You are the type that would fly the broken airplane and end up killing yourself. This isn't about union and management issues, this is about safety.
Your response just cemented that you really have no idea what you are talking about!
