Ha ha. I'd be lying if I said I haven't done that once or twice in the RJ.

I've screwed the pooch on an approach or two and asked for it to get the spacing. I've also had approach do it to me.

It used to be a very common thing on certain runways when airports were running a certain configuration. 23/18L conflicts in CLT, 35/27R in PHL, 22 in LGA (all the time). Not a big deal really. Then along came FOQA and guys started getting paranoid about making low level turns like that.
Interestingly enough, in Hawaii NOBODY does S turns or requests a sidestep to another runway to avoid a go around. I've done it a few times not knowing any better, but the look on the captain's face (and the controller's confusion about what we were asking for) has pretty much dissuaded me from doing it too much.

Then it's time to call flaps 8, set thrust, positive rate, gear up.

May want to refresh your go around call.
You laugh, we had a CA do that in a 200 going into BUR.

Eh, I'm drinking IPAs right now. Close enough!
. I thought it looked off right after I posted.

The lights have to add at least 500fpm for the amount of rumble and noise created.Yep! It's virtually the same drag profile as the 757 and 767. Until you really get the flaps hanging out there, they are lift devices only. Boards mostly make noise but you've got to use them (they might give you 500 fpm depending)... if you don't, you'll be in another state before you get down! The exception is into JFK with the overhead pattern.... that's the only place that runs me around enough where I can get away with just floating down.
I flew the maddog for a bit (same wing that you're working with)- it was very similar to the CRJ in regard to flaps and drag (just as you described). We gotta get you on the big birds!

I notice maybe a 50fpm increase when they pop out. Most annoying thing ever is when captains forget they are out there on climb out and you say something like "lights, boss", and they turn off the side floodlights but leave the landing lights hanging out.

I didn't even know you had time to be annoyed with legs that short.
