JohnE said:Whats the big deal? Just lower the nose and recover. Sounds like the pilot (HPIC) threw the control wheel forward in a panic and some pax got jostled around a bit. He should learn some finesse.
Would be curious though what sort of pitch attitude they would be using up that high.

From what I could tell, the guy I ran into had completed training, and then moved his family to Memphis, and was finally geting around to the administrative details of changing his driver license. (If it had been me, I probably would have waited four years until my current one expired. ) My thought - - please don't take this as an accusation - - is that maybe we're more informed for having read this forum than some pilots that don't. I should have made it clear that it's just my perception, and there's a high probability that my perception is way off the mark.Rez O. Lewshun said:The person you talked to was new to MEM? Getting his drivers license I think. Well perhaps he was brand new to the company..... ( can you clairfy your encounter).
IF you are this educated on the issue then why wouldn't we be? Just becuase you ran into ONE pilot, who may have been a new hire?
And therefore much more qualified to comment than I - - take my ramblings with many grains of salt.Rez O. Lewshun said:The pilots I fly with are just as informed as you about 3701. We're current in the jet and we are applying what we know.........

Tuesday I had to fly a couple of loads for my buddy the Drop Zone Owner. His student was in from the west coast and she's a 747 F0 with NWA. She says she heard a rumor that there appears to be a "410" club at Pinnacle.clownhater said:Stop frigging taking that dang airplane that high. It is a complete dog in the climb and has no business ever going above FL350. Why people out there don't realize this is completely beyond me. This is not rocket science
I realized this morning that I forgot to address this part of your post last night.Rez O. Lewshun said:In addition, offer your solutions or suggestions as to how you think something should be done...
Again, how do you want the story of 3701 to shared umongsts the pilots? A formalized briefing from the training dept.?
