They also expect folks with instrument ratings to be able to fly in IMC.Possibly the FAA is still expecting pilots to exercise good judgment.

FTFYThey also expect folks with instrument ratings to be able to fly in IMC without automation.
I’ll take a stab at it:
-Landing in the first 10’ of the runway
-Not wanting to get de-iced because you’re rushing
-Always being in a rush
-Being in such a rush you refuse to listen to your FOs briefing
I’d rather be a CA on reserve with the worst QOL in the industry than be complicit in the garbage I saw monthly as an FO.
I can
I've seen many many pilots who are dead men walking once the AP is off. Even at the airline level virtually all training failures are the result of piss poor instrument flying skills.
Hilarious. You’re a hero in your own mind.
Children of the magentaIs there a category for dead men walking when the AP is on?
And the pilot was wearing a MAGA shirt. GobblessThere is an interesting video out on IG (can’t figure out how to copy/paste to here) taken while on their last fuel stop in Nebraska City, NE. The lead passenger of this PC-12 is filming himself, all the passengers, and the pilot. Everyone is joyful, laughing, etc.
Kind of strange listening to them and knowing they would all be gone soon after.
RIP!
Didn’t the same thing happen after that lady who was an “influencer” taking flying lessons killed her and her dad?It's weird, it's like someone went through their social media and scrubbed it of any evidence of this flight. Both the band's official account and the daughter's.

When I go I need a friend to just delete my browser history.
That's the first thing a PI or estate attorney will tell you to do after an incident (or tell the family to do).

It’s a shame they didn’t humiliate the ANC base over the short landings like they did the GPWS crews in SE AK.
The data is all there. Probably afraid the public will find out about how negligent the crews are up there.
Negligent?
Throwing crews under the bus. Please don’t downgrade yourself. CAs deserve a better FO.
Naturally, as someone who flies in “the north,” I’m super curious as to what you’re talking about.
TNflygirl, yeah. They deleted every flight video she had on her Youtube account.
while giving checkrides, I have the examinees do nearly everything raw data. Green needles on the Garmin, if you will. I’ll already get an idea if they know how to use the GPS by having them upload a notional ATC issued clearance from me, after they’ve inadvertently entered simulated IMC, and turn the clearance into a short flight plan, both enroute and approach. Then all that magenta gets zoomed out to infinity, and they have to fly the clearance with ground-based Nav to a ground-based full procedure instrument approach, all of which they will execute, to include any necessary holds or course reversals. The second approach will be a GPS based one, where they can just follow magenta lines on both the now-zoomed-in map as well as the HSI. No autopilot, as there isn’t one….yet….in these birds.
