Possible landing without clearance

What's a foqa gate...

Since I'd be shocked if a certain carrier even has it,
1,000 configured/within speed sink rate

Well i land on the numbers, that way i dont need the first 1000 for the picnic after i over run bur.

Luckily our gates arent that restrictive, i haven't tripped them, or enough to get a phone call every

Meh, in just bitter of being told to do stuff that flat out won't work with this airplane to accommodate people that want to do Mach point haul ass to the marker every single time. Or getting terrible vectors/speeds assignments because approach doesn't want the aircraft behind us to "cut us off" in IMC while we're both on approaches. And then getting attitude when we say we're unable.

Not sure why people wanna go tearassing around with their hair on fire. At least if you get paid by the minute anyway. My motto? "Start off slow, and then taper off." Makes for a stress and violation free day.

we don't, I have no idea how it works. I suppose I should learn before I go to the turbofan side of the house

You seriously don't have a formalized stabilized approach criteria? Who you work for, some Asian carrier?

yes we do, but I was referring to foqa specifically
below 140kt at 1k, configured and ref by 500

FOQA just reports what you are doing in the aircraft. They're the same thing really. Even if you don't actually have a FOQA system onboard.

Does it only record/report during the approach phase?

It records/reports whatever your company can get away with and whatever the union allows.

*cough*

the FOQA gate is 800' HAT (and that's barometric, not RA, gods damnit), not 1000'. Go read the I&O plan.

The almost pathological hurry-up really drives me nuts.

"Taxi check complete."

"Clear left, taxi—" "Buzzzsaw 2958 readytotaxifoxtrot"

"God damn it."

It's kinda funny that in training we get these approach profiles that ensure a nice smooth stable approach and then you get out into the real world and you get "ZOMG 210 TO THE BRIDGE!!1111ONEONE!!!ELEVETYONE"

Stable approaches, then you get to TEB. 180 to torby, cleared to circle 1.
