1900 flying question

[socalpilot]

From the looks of your profile, I have more time in the 1900 than you have total. The airplane is not a handful in strong gusty crosswinds. It may be a little more difficult with the interconnect, but it can be done easily with one hand on the yoke, and the other on the PLs.

Thank you for pointing out how much more experience you have than me. I'm sure there are many things I could learn from you. I'm not saying the airplane can't be flown with one hand. It's just that when your a new FO flying the airplane in a strong gusting crosswind it can be challenging. This particular flight sounds like it was a new FO that needed a little help. acaTerry and his comments about roanoke just seem a little out of place. I get tired of people making comments about things they have no experience with. I think closing the cockpit doors is good advice but I know by the customers comments that many passengers really like watching us do our job.

If you don't have the muscle to land a 16000 pound King Air in a little wind and have to resort to procedures the likes of which I've only heard of in the military airdrop community - Go to the Gym!
