It’s not passive aggressive.. it’s acknowledging one of the many outdated things at SWA. It’s not required and there are better methods of doing so that EVERY OTHER AIRLINE uses. It’s time to start acting like a real major airline. Don’t even get me started on the WX packets that nobody even looks at. We waste over 50 million pieces of paper a year because the company is afraid of change.

I get we have to abide by what our POI says but stop asking for extra paperwork

Oh no the ATIS sheet!
ITS
SO
HARD
TO
FILL
OUT
Someday. Imagine. Your old and senior. No longer cool. I mean not nearly as edgey and hipster as you are now. And the flying partner your with scoffs at current practice-ism BECAUSE in his/her VAST years and hours of expertise, has determined that current practice-ism is antiquated.
Hint- if your THAT FO now over the ATIS sheet, you'll be THAT cappy down the road over whatever it is.
SWA does have some catching up to do with 1999 though

Prepare yourselves...setting zeros is going away. Minds will be blown...

I heard about it earlier this year from a check airman, who then went on a 10 minute diatribe on why it's a terrible idea to set missed-approach altitude instead of zeros. It's gonna be a rough few months I think. Just call me when I can go straight to APP mode without the airplane immediately exploding.
