Captain trying to see if he can match skill of AirLink pilots ?

Is the guy they drop off with the helicopter with local knowledge of the bay driving?

You mean the pilot?

I'd tend towards thinking no, since the ship was classified as moored a period before this event happened.

Was travelling pretty fast for a tanker that is moored.

I didn't say that it was moored during the event, just that it was classified as moored a period before this event happened. As in the Pilot had brought the vessel into harbour to the quay that it was designated to be at.

Who the fsck knows, I'm not the Pilot or a Transnet Ports Authority employee.

Who sets the “moor” status on the tracking app?

Bee in the bridge control !

Classic case of not bleeding the line when changing brake pads.

 

[ToxicBunny]

Who sets the “moor” status on the tracking app?

Somebody who is tasked with updating AIS status' for the vessel

Who sets the “moor” status on the tracking app?

I don't understand why you keep asking these questions as though he's going to be able to answer. Do you think this @ToxicBunny fellow runs the port?

Why don't you tell me who sets the moor status on the tracking app?
