Narrative

I WISH TO VOICE MY CONCERN WITH THE RECENT AND EXPANDING PRACTICE OF INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING VERBIAGE ON OUR COMPANY DETAILED PAGES CONCERNING ARPTS WITH CLOSED TWRS LATE AT NIGHT. SUGGESTED REVIEW: AIM -- FSS PARAGRAPH 4-1-3; NON-TWR ARPTS PARAGRAPH 4-1-9; PLT CTLED LIGHTING PARAGRAPH 2-1-7; CANCELING IFR FLT PLANS PARAGRAPH 5-1-4; CLRNC VOID TIMES PARAGRAPH 5-2-4. AIM'S ARE NOT CURRENTLY ISSUED; REQUIRED; OR AVAILABLE TO PLTS DURING LINE FLYING. BASICALLY; THIS COMPANY DETAILED PAGE DIRECTIVE REQUIRES PLTS TO CONSULT AN UNAVAILABLE DOCUMENT DURING A DUTY PERIOD WHEN THEY ARE UNABLE TO DO SO. IN OUR CASE; WE ENDED UP DOING A GAR AT XA30 IN THE MORNING BECAUSE WE WERE UNABLE TO ACCESS PLT CTLED LIGHTING IN A TIMELY MANNER FOR OUR APCH. THE CURRENT DIRECTIVE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO COMPLY WITH. FLT OPS NEEDS TO PUBLISH THE NECESSARY INFO IN THE FOM FOR INFLT REF; OR RETURN TO ISSUING THE ATC TAB OF THE CHART PUBS. ADDITIONALLY; FLT OPS SHOULD REVIEW THEIR STANDING POLICY OF HOW THEY MAKE OPERATIONAL FLT INFO AVAILABLE TO CREWS IN THE ACFT. CURRENTLY; ONLY CERTAIN READ BEFORE FLY ITEMS ARE REPUBLISHED IN THE WX PACKAGE. FOR THE REST; THEY ASSUME THAT ALL CREWS WILL REMEMBER AND RECALL THE DETAILS -- SOMETIMES MONTHS AFTER THE INITIAL PUB. STOP WRITING DIRECTIVES LIKE LAWYERS AND START WRITING LIKE PLTS TRYING TO HELP OTHER PLTS.
