RPTR OBJECTS TO BEING QUESTIONED BY FAA INSPECTOR DURING FLT.

Narrative

ON FLT FROM BNA TO MSP WE WERE JOINED BY AN FAA INSPECTOR FROM MSP WHO WAS AN LGT TYPE INSPECTOR. AFTER PASSING ABOUT FL230 FOR FL350 HE SAID HE HAD A FEW QUESTIONS TO ASK WHEN I HAD TIME. I BEING THE PF AND CAPT TURNED CTL OF THE ACFT OVER TO THE FO. I PROCEEDED TO GO THROUGH THE ACFT MANUAL (PROCS SECTION) TO EXPLAIN WHY I DID THE PROCS AND HOW I DID THE PROCS HE WAS IN QUESTION ABOUT. DURING THIS DISCUSSION HE ASKED FOR THE WT MANUAL TO CHK THE ACFT'S ABILITY TO CLB TO FL350 AT OUR CURRENT WT; HE DID THIS BECAUSE THE ACFT WAS CLBING SLOWLY AND WE REQUESTED FL330 TO BURN OFF SOME FUEL AND CLB LATER IN THE FLT. SO LET'S ADD MORE MATERIAL TO THE DISCUSSION. I FELT IF HE HAD QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FLT THAT THEY SHOULD BE ADDRESSED ON THE GND AND NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF A FLT. FIRST: I WAS TAKEN OUT OF THE LOOP OF A 2 PLT CREW. SECOND: I FELT THAT I NEXT HAD TO DEFEND MYSELF AND PROCS WRITTEN BY MY ACR. THIRD: I ALSO FELT THAT I SHOULD NOT HAVE SOMEBODY LOOKING OVER MY SHOULDER CAUSING MY CONCENTRATION TO BE BOTHERED BY THIS INDIVIDUAL WHOM I FELT WAS BEING A LITTLE OVERPWRING. FOURTH: IF YOU DECIDE TO RIDE A CERTAIN ACFT AND QUESTION A CREW'S PERFORMANCE THEN HE OR SHE SHOULD BE FAMILIAR AND KNOWLEDGEABLE OF THAT ACFT'S PROCS.
