Get home power? Ok...I'll fly 9 knots faster, ride the red line and have to jack with the power every two seconds to avoid overspeeding...
Only to not have a gate when I get to the terminal..Followed by waiting for the employee bus, having lots of traffic, getting stuck in construction and at lights along the way home etc..
Maybe I'm in the minority but I fly the plane the same way on the last leg. Getting on the ground 1 or 2 minutes sooner isn't going to change jack. There's way too much other stuff out there that will slow up my trip home.
Lot of good response material on this thread and I will definitely include it in my powerpoint presentation. It's a shame so many find humor in my plight. How are you going to feel next time you fly home and the captain of your regional is being impulsive? Maybe he decides to land in the wrong direction of forgets to put full flaps down, I don't know, but these are threats and I will help admonish them. Well, not just me, but everyone helping, especially my friend. Here are some other things I was thinking about too. About the attitude of resignation. I don't know what to say about this one. Maybe flying with a bad FO and you just resign that the landings are going to be bad? It'd kind of be like marrying Rhea Pearlman, in that you accept your partner for who they are knowing that the landing or lay is going to be terrible. Maybe in my presentation I'll even have a little picture of her and photoshop a pilot hat on her LOL I don't know, I'm just kidding guys. But back on point, I was talking to a friend at a big regional and he was telling me how a lot of the time a captain might not even call for a checklist and just assumes you'll do stuff. I don't know but that deifinitely is an attitude of invincibility, kind of like saying, "I don't know if it's done but I'll still be able to land the plane." My friend said sometimes the cargo fan isn't put on. Come on guys, you don't want that to cause damage or crash a plane. I'm reaching out to you because this is where careers start and I want to nip probs before they grow. I'll be back on later to collect info.
I don't usually post on here........But this is without a doubt the funniest thing I have ever read anywhere!!!!
Seriously, I can't stop laughing!!!!!!
Too stupid to get into Riddle?? Is that possible??
