SWA/FO said:Hey F U R L O U G H E D DUDE,
Your just jealous you don't have autobrakes at your guard bum desk job. I guess, desks don't have any brakes thesedays.
furloughed dude said:I guess this explains why they decided to use autobrakes when they weren't approved by the company.
GuppyWN said:Hook, line, and sinker bro. Do you follow FARs and company rules to the tee, or don't you? You said you did not waiver.... ever. I think you answered differently.
Now that we got that clear - STFU!
Gup
I don't have a huge ego and I will never bend to company pressures to fly as scheduled.
Just for clarification..... I don't consider anything past the reverse highspeed on 24L to be usable runway.

Andy said:As for Southwest's cowboy image, let me hit on just a few points. SWA has a reputation for taxiing excessively fast, which I've personally witnessed. SWA is not certified for autoland, in spite of this being an older and very reliable technology. SWA did not permit autobrakes to be used, as per FOM. Does SWA have the autothrottles working now? SWA has adopted an attitude that they will fly the 737 'old school.' This brings increased risk. When there is zero margin for error, your crews are being set up for failure.
Like it or not, Southwest has the cowboy image.

I don't know what you are talking about me editing out the 13vs31 comment. It is still in there. My edit was to say you were my classmate, not my sim partner (which I originally typed).

You are throwing stones in your own glass house and your emotions have made you totally blind to yourself.
We all work in an industry that is going to have accidents. It is more likely than not that all our airlines will have accidents and incidents in our careers. To try and prove incompetence or neglect in any of these events is just plain ignorant. It tells me that you think it can't happen to you. Which is unsafe in itself.
And remember, if your 747-400 would have been 200 feet lower, well, need I say more.
