Stop trolling and move on. FAA expects FAA-approved company procedures to be followed. In this case taxiing without final weights is an FAA-approved procedure. If an overweight taxi occurs that’s a (relatively) easy maintenance inspection and happens so infrequently it’s worth the 99.999% of times the procedure works well. The company knows all of this when they write procedures and the FAA knows all of this when they approve the procedures.

You're not serious are you? It happens often enough that I've twice been on a ual plane that was overloaded and we had to RTG to kick off revenue passengers. Weather wasn't a factor.
ah yes... the old "not my problem, i'm just the captain" excuse. I've gotten away with a lot by using that one.

If it was a violation, I'm sure the FAA would have noticed by now.

Whether or not it’s worth it to leave passengers and non revs behind?
where to load the cargo to keep the plane in weight and balance?
you know most airplanes have more than 1 pit…..

Either way, legal or not, it would be nice if ya'll could get your ducks in a row before you block the taxiway to the runway,

the rest of the industry (minus American).

This particular co-worker of yours thinks that YOU should be the one let go.
