Mesaba has [blank]... Does Pinnacle and Colgan?

[say again]

Line Operations Safety Audit is I believe what the acronym stands for... basically folks in the jumpseat on revenue flights simply evaluating areas that can be improved. All pilots are told to do things as if he/she wasn't there. The company found some things they wanted to change in the culture (such as reading the paper and changing the language on electronics in the cockpit). The data is much like FOQA in that it is de-identified and used to find changes to make that help the safety aspect as a whole.

Thanks for the info. :beer:

Do we still have that, or is that just something that was done when the Sabitini safety audit was going on? I haven't seen or heard of anyone riding the jumpseat to observe things from a safety standpoint since that was over. Nice job jumping right on the recommendations from the firm, too, management. Have we even implemented ANY of the stuff they suggested?

Then every first year FO should have been fired for not showing up... How the heck are they going to afford that on the pittance they get paid? Better to be at Mc Ronalds, at least you can steal some of the fry grease for the reamings there.

All Colgan pilots know/knew that it was a crap company when they applied. That's why they put up with it. The entire pilot group knew it before they even walked through the door.
