NJ, ive got no problem doing 300fpm and 200 knots up to 370...
Dude!
If you're doing 300fpm and 200kts the only thing behind you is a J-3. And maybe a King Air. What are you doing looking at KIAS up there anyway? Doesn't that thing have a M meter?:p

3000fpm/.80 through Fl350 baby :nana2:
 
Exec Jet 1234, Slow to 200Knots for Traffic ahead. or if you prefer

Exec Jet 1234 Slow to .56.


Funny thing is each time i try to step on the gas and go faster it just gets out of trim!
 
You know you're bored at FL350 when you can complete the seat pocket magazine's crossword puzzle without looking at the clues...

...Slow to .56
<<================<<<<<<<

.56?? Is that even a real number?? What are you doing looking at KIAS at FL350 anyway? Don't those things have a M meter? Never mind, at those speeds you don't need one....Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.

Next time you get behind Granny doing 35 on the intersate.....don't drive angry. :p

See ya round Granny :p :p

Bwaaaah haw haw - that's harsh! I don't quite climb at 3000/.80, but not too far off that mark relatively speaking...all the way up to the Express Lanes in the low FL400's.

Well. It used to be the express lane [410] until all the new 737s started dorking it up. Now we just step it up a few thousand.
:p

Dogs and cats sleeping together....total hysteria!
 
Dude - we all applaud your efforts to save ChickenTacos some fuel with your single engine cruise program but c'mon - step it up a little - some of us have places to go!!!


Freakin' Regional Jet Captains triing to build flight time - you are the scourge of the industry!!!

You know you're bored at FL350 when..............

... you wonder how you got a CRJ2 to FL350 anyway ...

... you wonder why some pilots think they're better than others simply because of their choice of employer ...

... you figure out how to shoehorn a diesel into a Bronco, give it a 4" lift, new paint, and a nice stereo ... for $1000 ...

... you actually look forward to landing in ORD ...

... you wonder how your FO every got a license ...

... you wonder how YOU ever got a license ...

... you start saying naming other pilots on the frequency because you know that voice from somewhere ...
 
You know you're bored at FL350 when.....
....you think of FL350 as LOW altitude.
....you fuss about 737s in your way at FL410
....you look at other planes on TCAS and time how long it takes ( or doesn't take) to pass them.
....You laugh when someone responds to ATC: "We're doin' .79, you need us to pick it up to .80?"

And the #1 answer from the home office in Columbus, OH.
If you have ever said, "Hey, What's that guy doing up here in a lawn chair?!?!??!"
 
I'm guessing either Z or W. But then again it may be a three-holer-sideways-sitter sercret. (yeah, say that three times fast).
 
No "J" on the three holer panel. "W" was taken on the KW meter..."Z" on the aft cabin zone temp and fuel dump nozzles..."V" on the Kvar meter..."X" on the mix valve. That takes care of the uncommon letters.
