Thanks CJC3407

xjgear,

I would have changed my avatar before making such a reply.
Kind of sending a high, mighty and duplicitous message, don't you think?

FWIW, if your family could afford the seats in the back of my airplane, you
wouldn't be swinging the gear at ExpressJet? Every time the Geniuses you
hold such high regard for, come up with a "great idea", the costs of those
seats go up; earning you less money per year to swing the gear at your
regional and making it even less likely your family would ever be in the
back of my airplane.

My avatar is in humor and my friends in the FAA find it hilarious. It's called sarcasm, your issue runs deeper into paranoia.

Puddle jumper lesson 101 XJT = Express Jet XJ = Mesaba. Thankfully I have a strong union despite the GOP's best efforts to squash any, unity strength, that the american workers have left. My pay in the left seat of the 900 takes care of my family just fine. Last I checked all those extra taxes and security fees were imposed during the village idiot years. But don't worry there's a great country where the govt doesn't impose it's will on the people. Where your hard earned money doesn't get wasted on the weak and poor (WWJD). Let me buy you a one way ticket to Somalia. Enjoy!

There's a huge fallacy in the "Recipe" theory.

I personally own a badly-soiled, dog-eared copy of the Joy of Cooking. It allows an inexperienced cook like me to make great dishes for family and friends. I could probably even go into business if I were so inclined, have never worked in the food industry (OK, a pizza busboy freshman year of high school).

Does somebody REALLY think if they teach a pilot with little experience the SOP "recipe", he will magically become a SAFE pilot? Perhaps he will be SAFER but he probably will use the recipe as a crutch. I suppose if you arm the pilot with enough "recipes" he will do an adequate job under most, if not all, normal circumstances. But, having never learned the theory of the recipe and an in-depth understanding through experience and study, he will be clueless on how to account for the few times the recipe doesn't work as planned.

When the feces strikes the axial-flow ventilator, do you want a Renslow, or a Sully at the controls?

IB,

A logical and understandable comment. Yes, you start with the recipe. With experience you learn more caution. You apply what you have learned (the hard way) and be the Pilot in command. But - you start with the recipe and build on it. One should not throw the baby out with the bath water.
As I'm told - This is not brain surgery. But a Brain Surgeon can kill only one person at a time, Pilots can kill many more.
Err to the safety side. The first goal of the day is - everybody lives.

Wait, is that why we learn systems too? I always wondered why I spend two weeks learning that stuff when all I thought I needed was a printed procedure.

Please enlighten me how 3407 is to "thank" for this?

This is why:

So, enlighten me. Are you retarded? Or is it your own fault you are such an idiot?

Have you ever heard the theory of boiling a live frog? Hey! Dumba55! GET OUT OF THE POT! By the time you come around to recognize 'something's just not quite right?' YOU'RE DEAD! Or just out of work? Your UNION will live on! with or without YOU.

Look, redbearded stepchild: your original post was about DEICING, not the above article you just posted. Remember that? Try to keep up with your own thread, Sport.

You're a real blue plate special, I'm sure, kid.. Complete with waxes eyebrows, fakebake tan, gelled up spiky hair, and that thing you little gear-swingers call a courier (see f*g) bag. Save your keyboard tough guy stuff for someone else.

 

[wlacy]

100 1/2 you are everything that's wrong with this doomed industry and country. If I remember correctly, you've accumulated quite a track record of nonsense on this forum dating back to mid-2008. Do yourself & everyone on this website a favor and take a long walk off a short pier.

 

[Smarta$$]

I pray my family is never in the back of your airplane. Keep it up Rambo, you'll save these United States from that scary, conspiracy filled govt, all by yourself! You've obviously never worked in a airlines training department. Worked one on one with the FAA. I'm betting you're "that guy" who when speaks in RGS, everyone rolls their eyes.

100% agree. That guy is so far gone, its scary.

Hey RETARD, where in your article does it link 3407 to icing regulation changes?

Turn off Hannity and Levin, it will make you dumber than you already are, as if that were possible.

Now tell us all how EGPWS hasn't made CFIT almost none-existant in transport aircraft...

I don't know how you keep a medical certificate.

 

[kmox29]

So, TCAS and EGPWS are simply tools of an overreaching, interfering Government?

Until some of you realize that the FAA (at the Washington, DC level) is a political origanization, you will never understand why things happen or don't happen.

In the meantime, I will continue to work hard to ensure that Darwinism isn't the method we use to screen pilots. In fact, that has to be the dumbest statement I've read on FlightInfo. Congratulations.

ps - I think xjgearbtch's avatar is funny.

 

[ultrarunner]

Remember the good old days when you used to look out the window....Oh well....

I've been based my entire professional career downwind of the great lakes. Never flown an airplane that told me when to turn the stuff on.....

 

[TurboAWD]

TCAS vs political orientation... what a bunch of wanabe cowboys. Except they depended on the gov't too...
