No problem. Do what you need to do to make the landing as safe as you can. Thanks for the discussion. The class I am in is quite boring, and I needed the debate!
:nuts:
Debate and discussion are good. Sometimes we can actually learn from different perspectives.
To criticize another crews actions having never flown the aircraft is something I try to avoid. There are way too many variables in an abnormal situation and way too many different systems setups.
In all circumstances one needs to reflect on whether we are adding to a safe outcome or injecting more variables into the game.
I have come to the belief that if something breaks in flight and the aircraft can be safely flown, don't try to be a hero and fix it while flying. Let maintenance look at it on the ground. Especially flight controls, ie. stab trim, flaps, spoilers, ailerons, yaw dampners. You may just may your problems worse.
Oh yea, and electrical problems!
