His credibility is speaking for itself. He sat sideways in the military! Come on - who would question that?

Actually, I think P3 nav guys sit facing forward.

You wanted to know about job opportunities at a certain company and were playing class clown. I was giving you some much need advice you will obviously not heed until either responsibility or age cures you of your attitude of when things are and are not appropriate. BTW, you are a funny guy and I enjoy your posts-normally. But our careers are not even comparable, nor are our experience levels, apples and kiwi fruit. If you think that sitting right seat in a CRJ is the peak of my life, you would be mistaken.
For the guy with the Santa claus hat. Dude, I am not here to impress or gain credibility with anyone. If you want to think I am a 18 yr old student pilot, that is just fine with me. :beer:
Now back to the scheduled program

Agreed I was five 9s positive he was being facetious. Everyone knows at worst it will just mean a bigger recall class maybe. In general a lot of CP and training directors lack sense of humor on certain subjects, he can take the point of view or leave it. Getting through training in that world is more about being under the radar, and less "cute". IMHO it is a tragedy.
Btw, If you messed up, I wouldn't be the one making facetious comments on you, and would take issue with them, and I don't know you that well.
We should all have avoid schadenfreude even if it deserved as so called professionals. My problems were not with guys that pointed out mistakes, but made personal judgements, attacks and wisecracks,especially before all the facts are in, as well as remind everyone it can happen to anyone. Fly safe
I meant to his question on whether or not they were hiring. I don't think you provided him any information he didn't already have regarding that.

Yes, for the second time I agree.

Welllllllll......
This may be the bush rat in me, but you'll break ground quicker if you dump in some flaps as you're rolling. Don't know how well that'd work in a CRJ, but you can reconfigure in the roll, you won't climb all that well at first, but if the strip is short, or if you're past V1 and you're running out of runway, you could dump full flaps and break ground provided there isn't any terrain, or obstacles in the wya.

Interestin'. In the cessna, cherokees, and even one anonymous large multi engine turbine aircraft that I've seen, this technique works great. You just have to make sure you wait until you're generating just enough lift so that adding flaps won't screw you by adding too much drag.
What does it do in the twin cessnas, seen as how I've never flown one.

That's just, like, your opinion, man
Split flaps. No bueno.

Ahhhhhh. So the only advantage you get is the tiny amount of thrust that is ducted downward from the engines and the slipstream? That sucks. Piss poor design if I do say so myself then.

Absolutely true statement. The CRJ should give you a flaps fail before you get a split flap condition- in theory. Split flaps in this condition in the air and I think they would have been toast.

I loooove the split flaps. The plane would be a serious pain in the ass to fly without the split flaps and high Vfe15/Vle speeds. Cessna did good.

I don't think he's talking about flap asymmetry I think he's talking about split flaps, as opposed to fowler flaps, or others.
