Yeah, like the Flight Options guy that was bashing regional pilots not long ago. Obviously he rides in the back enough, so felt the need to say that RJ pilots need "lessons on making normal banked turns, climbs, descents, and how to operate the pressurization controller". Obviously this genious has only flown business jets his entire career, and has no idea how autopilots handle in RJ's. In the Embraer there is this thing we call the "honeywell shuffle"...anyone who has flown it knows what I'm talking about. When LNAV is selected it will bank back and forth repeatedly until it figures out which way it needs to go. Yes, the pressurization systems suck sometimes too...but we don't control it. Its all automatic. My point is, before someone goes off bashing pilots that fly an aircraft that they have never flown, perhaps they should consider that there may be more to the situation than they are aware of.ultrarunner said:Yeah, you're right. This should have really been on the FRAC/Netjet board.

Someone point me to the PC Flight Info board please.
