Just goes to show, you never know when the real checkride is coming.

Obviously a good job and it worked out well; I am just kind of wondering why they didn’t use the thrust reversers. Without the tires you’re not going to want to use your brakes, but speed is certainly not your friend and using TR’s would slow you down and provide some stability and control.
Anyway, good to see it was uneventful in the end.

They used the RH TR only, for improved directional control.

Great job guys! I'm totally jealous if you get to go on all the tv shows now that you're famous. Say hi to Kelly Ripa for me - I think she's hot.

make sure chautauqua gets that plane. What a crappy industry sometimes, Here these guys are faced with a situation which they delt with very well, and now at the end of the year, because they wont give up money and other things, they lose flying and maybe some of their jobs. I hope continental's ceo had his eyes glued to the tv during that one. Nice job express guys

Yeah, they'll probably reward that FO by furloughing him in a few months
