Forgive me if I'm lost at this time of the night (prop lag in Glasgow!) but I think that's what I said earlier 
I'd done over 30 flights when the lamps went up 20ft early, all at 100% so I lost 5% pilot rating which threw me overall from 100% to 99.9%. However, some 40 flights on (at 100%) I remain (as expected) a Flight Captain at 99.9% but... my flights total is at 70something-point 5 :shock: How the hell can you do something-point-five of a flight?? Was I dragged unconcious from the flightdeck for pulling the lamps up early?? :think:
No.. this can be sorted out. We all have a permanent record in the form of our profile so it is not outside the bounds of impossibilty for an extra line to be added to reflect any previous faux pas while the said faux pas can be worked off numerically.. eg, as I said earlier by completing 'X' number of subsequent flights at 100%.
I'd hate to think that 20-years down the line if I'd still only made this one Fup having completed god-knows how many flights at 100% that my pilot rating was still at 99.9. :tuttut: If an airlines reputation can 'work through' such incidents, then surely we should have the opportunity to redeem ourselves also :partyman:
