DURING AN FAA ACI'S RTE CHK; IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT SEPARATE RWY PERFORMANCE DATA WAS MISSING. THE LEGAL REQUIREMENT OF THE PAPERWORK WAS QUESTIONED.

Narrative

THIS SIT OCCURRED ENRTE FROM IAH-MCO; WITH AN ACR INSPECTOR ON BOARD. DURING CLBOUT HE WANTED TO SEE THE ACFT MAINT LOG. WE HAD 2 PLACARDS FOR THE TEMP CTLS ON THE AIR CONDITIONING PACKS; ADVISING THESE WERE TO BE OPERATED IN THE MANUAL MODE. HE QUESTIONED THESE PLACARDS AND WANTED TO SEE THE MEL. HE PUT DOWN THE LOGBOOK AND IN A FEW MINS; HE PICKED IT UP AGAIN. THIS WENT ON AT LEAST 4 DIFFERENT TIMES. THIS BECAME A DISTR FOR ME AND THE FO. IT LEFT US WITH THE IMPRESSION HE WAS THERE TO FIND A REASON TO VIOLATE US. HE THEN WANTED TO SEE OUR RELEASE AND WX PACKAGE. HE ADVISED US THAT THE RWY PERFORMANCE DATA WAS NOT WITH THE PAPERWORK. I ADVISED THAT IT WAS WITH THE PAPERWORK WHEN I LEFT OPS. APPARENTLY; I LOST IT ENRTE FROM OPS OR HAD MISTAKENLY THROWN IT AWAY. HE SHOWED CONCERN THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE IT ON BOARD. I ADVISED HIM THAT OUR WT AND BAL FORM WAS THE COMPANY'S PRIMARY DATA FOR WT AND BAL AND FOR RWY PERFORMANCE. THE RWY ANALYSIS IN THE WX PACKAGE WAS ADVISORY IN CASE WE HAD TO CHANGE OUR WT AND BAL AND COULD NOT CONTACT OUR LOAD PLANNING OFFICE. SINCE WE HAD USED THE RWY OUR PAPERWORK WAS PREDICATED UPON; WE WERE LEGAL TO DEPART WITHOUT THE RWY ANALYSIS ON BOARD. I FEEL HE WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THIS EXPLANATION WHEN HE LEFT THE COCKPIT. THIS INSPECTOR WAS THE MOST DISTRACTING AND UNPROFESSIONAL THAT I HAVE ENCOUNTERED IN 33 YRS WITH THE AIRLINE.
