need help on salary for FO on Legacy

[NCherches]

...I flew with a guy who 'Slipped' a jet on final to reduce airspeed with passengers. WTF

Depends on the jet, jackazz. For Falcons I agree with you. However, dipping a wing if you can is an advantage. Nothing like rolling down a runway in a jet on one main gear like a B-17 at an airshow. BOOYAH!

LOL

Don't try that in the FBW Falcons LD....or the upcoming FBW Globals, etc etc..

I wouldn't even dip the wing in the 50. No room. Great way to scrape a tip off. As it were, I can land my Legacy in more than twice the x-wind you can in your Falcone, pen-day-joe. And I don't have to worry about running a wingtip through a snowbank when some idiot ramper tries to plow me through one, either. So there.


I slipped an EMB once when I didn't know any better (I was a total noob). Airplane didn't seem to mind but the Captain was sure to politely inform me that you don't fly a jet that way. HA HA HA.



FBW Global? Really? Didn't know that was coming. I obviously don't pay attention any more since I will be working at Wal-Mart for the forseeable future any way...

I'd guess about 35kts direct xwind is all I have had the chance to land a Falcon in (50/900ex/7X)...and really, it was a non-event like most jets. You can dip a wing just as you sensibly would in any swept-wing jet.

In fact, I only know of ONE infamous internet pilot who has had some girly issues with a little bitty crosswind in a Falcon...:blush:

Well at least Dassault finally pulled their heads out of their arses and gave you footpedal steering. That sure helps. To land a 50 in that kinda' wind you need a third hand for the stupid tiller.

You also have about a foot more clearance for the wingtip in the 7X vs the 50. Still nowhere close to the mighty EMB but they're catching on.......slowly.

I don't know anyone but you dumb enough ( )to land a 50 with 35 knots direct cross... That would be like a NASCAR rodeo.

Very little clearance on 7X tips during landing as its a very swept wing. It is, however, an airplane you land flat, if not with a little push. Again, non-event.

Nose high, wing down, opposite rudder on 9 mile final xwind landings are good for 152's and Embarears, not for jets.

I never needed to quickly jump on the tiller in xwinds in any Falcon, and it would scare the crap outta me if someone did.

You are gettin there my son, a little more pattern work in that 152 and I swear, its gonna click!

PS - I would appreciate an invite to your first solo!

If I'm not mistaken, LD, you gave a 30 knot crosswind a try once, didn't you?

I'm sorry but I'm laughing so hard at this post I can't reply!

BTW, d*chebag, did you ever con that absolutely hot, beautiful, intelligent, out-of-your-league girl to marry you??? I didn't get an invite to the wedding so I'm a little bit hurt.

Tell Dilf and her gorgeous mom I said hello!
