Since it's a new year, I've decided to add a new peeve to my list:
"Marrying the Bugs" as we call it, i.e. making sure the heading bug is matched to the current aircraft heading.
Now I understand when you're flying in heading select that this is very important, and possibly when you're expecting a vector. But, if you're in LNAV, 3 hours to the closest land the other guy is constantly reaching up to tweak the heading 2 degrees every 30 seconds, you might as well be flying heading select the whole way.
Do you do this? Does this annoy you? If so, why?
