Should This Pilot Be Fired?

[ProFracPilot]

Intentional stalls in your company aircraft is foolish, not scary, unless authorized and/or required for mx or operational purposes.

Like, say, a .297 check ride?

2 things you never want to hear in the cockpit.

Captain saying " Watch this"


F/O saying "I have an idea"!

Fly like you train, train like you fly. :erm:

Log what you need, Fly what you want.

I would NOT want to fly with anyone who pulled that $hit!

I wouldn't want to fly a P180

I've taken lots of .297 rides, and never been asked to do a stall.

I have taken dozens of them and did stalls on every one.

Did you mean .299 ride?

I think you must mean a .299 Line Check.

A .297 Check requires at least 1 (turning) stall. 2 stalls may be waived. So, if someone is signing off your .297's without having you demonstrate at least 1 stall, then your check rides have been invalid.

If we want to be perfectly correct, you only have to demonstrate recovery from an approach to a stall by recovering from the first indication.
