Narrative

ON THE ARR INTO MOSCOW; THE FO WAS THE PF. HE WAS HIGH ON THE DSCNT. THE CAPT; PNF; TOLD THE FO A COUPLE TIMES TO GET DOWN. I DID NOT SAY HOW HIGH HE WAS BECAUSE THE CAPT WAS ALREADY COMMENTING. THE FO DID NOT INCREASE RATE OF DSCNT MUCH. JUST AFTER INTERCEPTING FINAL; APCH OFFERED US A L-HAND CIRCUIT TO MAKE THE DSCNT. THE CAPT ACCEPTED THIS. AT THIS TIME WE WERE PASSING THROUGH TRANSITION LEVEL DSNDING TO 2000 FT. THE FO HAD SET IN 997 FOR QFE AND THE CAPT WAS SO FOCUSED ON THE FO BEING HIGH AND OVERLOADED WITH HANDLING THE RADIO CALLS AND DEALING WITH METERS; HE STILL HAD 1013 STANDARD SET IN. I HAD WRITTEN DOWN 977 FOR QFE FROM THE ATIS. I SAW THE DISCREPANCY AND ASKED THE CAPT TO REQUEST THE ALTIMETER SETTING. THE CAPT DID NOT RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING QFE SET IN. I THOUGHT THERE WAS PLENTY OF TIME TO CORRECT THE CONFLICTING ALTIMETER SETTINGS FROM APCH. APCH DID NOT UNDERSTAND OUR REQUEST AND IT TOOK 3 RADIO CALLS BEFORE THEY GAVE US QFE OF 978. AT THIS TIME WE WERE PASSING THROUGH 3000 FT WHEN THE FO SET IN 978 FROM 997. THIS CAUSED US TO LEVEL OFF ABOUT 400 FT LOW. THE PART THAT MADE IT WORSE IS THE FO DID NOT CLB BACK UP TO 2000 FT. THE CAPT TOLD HIM TO CLB; BUT THE FO DID NOT CLB AGGRESSIVELY IF AT ALL. ONCE AGAIN; I DID NOT SAY 'CLB' BECAUSE THE CAPT WAS ALREADY SAYING IT. ONE REASON WE DID NOT CLB AS EASILY WAS THAT THE SPD BRAKE WAS STILL OUT MUCH EARLIER. I TOLD THE CAPT THAT HE SHOULD PUT THE SPD BRAKE IN FOR THE FO. HE ONLY MOVED IT HALF WAY BECAUSE HE WAS OVERLOADED WITH WHAT HE HAD TO DO. WE EVENTUALLY CLBED TO ABOUT 100 FT LOW ABOUT THE TIME IT WAS GLIDE PATH INTERCEPT. I BELIEVE THAT THE CAPT GOT VERY FOCUSED AND WORRIED WHEN THE COPLT WAS HIGH ON THE DSCNT; SO FOCUSED THAT HIS OTHER DUTIES GOT DROPPED. WHEN THE FO WAS HIGH; IT MADE EVERYTHING ELSE HARDER TO DEAL WITH QFE AND METRIC ALTS. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE AGGRESSIVE AND ALSO TOLD THE FO HE WAS HIGH. ALSO; WHEN I SAW A DISCREPANCY IN ALTIMETER SETTINGS I SHOULD HAVE TOLD THE FO TO 'LEVEL OFF NOW! UNTIL WE GET THE CORRECT ONE.' I ALSO SHOULD HAVE TRUSTED THE ONE I WROTE DOWN FROM ATIS. I THOUGHT THAT I MIGHT HAVE MADE A MISTAKE; BUT THE LOWER ONE IS SAFER AND MAKES MORE SENSE FOR QFE. IT WAS A MESS AND ALL 3 PLTS CONTRIBUTED TO THE POOR PERFORMANCE AND ANY ONE OF US COULD HAVE STRAIGHTENED IT OUT; ESPECIALLY ME AS RELIEF PLT WHO WATCHED IT HAPPEN!
