Flight Operations Notice - From ****** Airways

 

There appears to be some confusion over the new pilot role titles. This notice will hopefully clear up any misunderstandings.

 

The titles P1, P2 and Co-Pilot will now cease to have any meaning, within the Operations Manual.

 

They are to be replaced by Handling Pilot, Non-Handling Pilot, Non-Handling Landing Pilot, Handling Non-Landing Pilot and Non-Handling Non-Landing Pilot.

 

The Landing Pilot is initially the Handling Pilot and will handle the take-off and landing except in role reversal when he is the Non-Handling Pilot for taxi until the Handling Non-Landing Pilot hands the handling to the Landing Pilot at 80 knots.

 

The Non-Landing (Non-Handling, since the Landing Pilot is handling) Pilot reads the checklist to the Handling Pilot until after the Before Descent Checklist completion. Then the Handling Landing Pilot hands the handling to the Non- Handling Non-Landing Pilot who then becomes the Handling Non-Landing Pilot.

 

The Landing Pilot is the Non-Handling Pilot until the "Decision Altitude" call, when the Handling Non-Landing Pilot hands the handling to the Non-Handling Landing Pilot, unless the latter calls "Go Around", in which case the Handling Non-Landing Pilot continues handling and the Non-Handling Landing Pilot continues non-handling until the next call of "Land" or "Go Around", as appropriate.

 

In view of the recent confusion over these rules, it was deemed necessary to restate them clearly.

It seems straight forward, unless of course the non-handling landing pilot becomes incapable of handling the landing, then who handles the landing?

 

Because the handling pilot handles but does no landing in the role reversal, as the non-handling pilot until the landing non-handling pilot hands the landing over to the landing pilot who is in this case unable to handle the landing!!!
