Continental Airline Pilots and ATC at Houston

[Amish RakeFight]

As to the "cloud penetrations" you saw while on the jumpseat...I say DEFINE CLOUD.

I think there's a CAL JS out there that needs some "sanatizing." OP might have left some FOD.

 

[Colonel Savage]

Oh well...

Unfortunately, my captain fell for the bait because ATC threatened to break us off from the approach and re-sequence us.

Go-Arounds pay more than landings.:beer:

Sounds like your captain is as dumb as you.
He fell for the bait.....and you saved the day....

go blow each other now and have your own personal crying game.

 

[amlplt]

Say thank you!

Say thank you for the ride home. Don't try to back seat pilot. Leave that to the Feds. Tell the next Captain you blog about this kind of thing when you ask for the jumb seat then see if your getting home that day!!

Well said!!!

If you can't run with the big dogs then stay on the poarch. I think there's a reason why we back up our visual app with an instrument procedure.

So, ATC tried to pressure us...

ATC threatened to break us off...

ATC gave us some wild vector, well inside of OWELL FAF that resulted in an un-stabilized approach...

Who's flying your ****ing airplane, you or ATC?

However, both my captain and I were extremely upset.

You really need to get out more.

Shirley you can't be serious. Go get some more multi engine time.

I am serious. And don't call me Shirley!
