Why do some guys love to get on the brakes and reverse on a 14000 foot runway on a one hour flight from phili to boston? Those are'nt boxes in back. I am starting early tonight guys! Cheers Just a pet peeve, unless at says next left where they probably not at 110 knots.
 
chicks dig it!!

I havent had to spool em up but once this year. But that was Midway!!:eek:
 
Which 14,000 foot runway in KBOS was that.

?

Like the other guy said they are wicked cool.

Same reason guys get on FI.com and yell abuot why some pilot got on the brakes. Becuase they can.

At least somebody is getting to drink tonite.
 
Ya, I like when you do a great approach and baby soft touchdown inside the touchdown zone and at 60 knots the captain says "My Controls" and slams on the brakes lets them off them slams them again. And says "Don't worry you will get the hang of it!"
 
I do love useless topics. BUT Yea you guys are right I guess there is a time and a place.
 
I do it because I like to have all of my passengers bow to me after a flight to show their gratitude for a safe operation...
 
Maybe they are running late and getting off the runway sooner than later might save quite a bit of taxi time...

Dont know why in Boston, but I can tell you that Atlanta brings us in tight and requests us to exit first available. Plus the ERJ brakes likes it when we heat em up. S T O M P S T O M P S T O M P ! sssssssssscccccrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeettttttttttcccccccccchhhhhhhhhhhh ! !

lol Geez I crack myself up!! 'Nuther beer woman ! Now !
 
"It's a jet, son. Those people pay to hear that noise."

The next time a guy gets on the brakes and full TR's on a 14,000 foot runway, why don't you ask him? Now quit wasting valuable bandwith and let's get on to a relevant topic like "which kind of hair gel do you use", or "my airline sucks less than your airline".

Shutt up and make me some more coffee.

Gotta agree with ex j-41 on this one. I could never figure out why that was necessary. At least everyone thinks the captain does all the flying...
 
Because anybody who can make a reverse high-speed exit gets their name on a plaque down in the ladies room.
