Porter picus
Hey, I know Porter has a picus program, I’m just wondering if they do it a lot or is it more of a last resort kind of thing when they’re short? Like they have it but they might not get everyone into the program asap.
Re: Porter picus
PICUS is left open for the FO to apply to the program, not forced on anyone.
FO needs 300 hours on type
FO then applies to Flight Ops Management for approval
Approval is given after a thorough review of the FO's training file and interview
FO now has PICUS log and approval letter
FO submits documentation to Line Captain
Line Captain, voluntary accepts to conduct PICUS, or to decline
Line Captain signs log to indicate that PICUS was done in regards to the FOM
If FO doesn't comply with duties (as a Captain) outlined in FOM, and/or has poor attitude or poor decision making skills, the log isn't signed

Re: Porter picus
Thank you I just heard something along the lines of them not letting many people into the program. Cheers

Re: Porter picus
I don’t think PICUS is being conducted on the E2. Only the dash.
