Task distribution:

- Company B provides a balanced task distribution between Captain and F/O.
- Company C delegates the entire overhead panel to the F/O.
Areas of responsibility
1. Overhead panel
Depending on the Airline FCOM you want to simulate the task distribution between Captain and F/O will be different.
Make sure you agree on what Company procedure you want to follow (A, B or C).
2. Aft overhead panel
Task distribution:
- Company A & C let the crew decide if either the Captain or the F/O sets up the aft overhead panel while the other crew-member does the walk-around.
- Company B assigns the responsibility for overhead panel to the F/O. The Captain does the walk-around.
3. CDU
Task distribution:
- Company A&B: both pilots make CDU entries and are responsible for verification.
- Company C: the Captain or F/O may make CDU entries. The other pilot must verify the entries.
