When TWA first got the 717's, I was "encouraged" to keep the AT's on until touchdown. Nope, I don't think so.
FSI "encouraged" me to keep the AT's on until touchdown in the G550. Thanks, I'll pass. A guy did that at EWR and wasn't paying attention to the speed and throttles so they went to idle at 50 feet in a little windshear. It looked like a Harrier landing as he rode it in.
Glad it was a Gulfstream instead of a Legacy or there'd be patches on the top of the wing where the struts poked through.
Fly the FU@KIN' AIRPLANE!
