We have a joint agreement between the carrier and the association. We supply two gatekeepers, and pilots review this data daily. If they see something they don't like, such as Ed flying into Hong Kong and being really quick on the approach, not following the SOP, this guy will call me and ask what happened last night. I can tell him to get lost, but that's not the road I want to go down. The road I want to go down is to be able to say, the controller had me in really quick; a monsoon was coming, and we had to get down on the ground. He's going to look at it and say, I still should have followed the rules. He might recommend a course of action, or he might say that was a good call and have a nice day. That's how it works.
