From power up on take-off until cleaned up and flying and from minimums on approach until stopped at the gate are 100 percent pilot/captain responsibility. It can not be any other way.
 
Two professional with a differing opinion. So who was right? Any facts to back up either style? I assert that being in this industry longer doesn't necessarily make you better a better pilot.

C'mon. Being told not to use ailerons because there's no T/O data for having a spoiler extended is crap. It's got nothing to do with a difference of opinion and reeks of a check airman with small man syndrome.

I thought the same thing too when I heard it from a check airman during my OE. I was just wondering if I was missing something. That's why I asked if someone had a reference. You know there are plenty of check airman with small man syndrome who read these boards.

Y'all need to lighten up.

Thank you.(!)

Aircraft data: measure with a micrometer, cut it with an ax, and fly it +10/-5.
I won't even get into the concept that the engines on each aircraft have thrust output tolerances.

And this guy was worried about the additional drag of a barely extended spoiler at low speeds?
 
I always chuckle at the ones when he releases brakes and push the power up in a crosswind takeoff, he then mashes the yolk full forward and turns the wheel over 45 degree's. Like thats going to help at 5 knots ground speed... It's usually the same ones who cant flair without pumping the column at about 6 cycles per second.
