Ok, OK. I'll acquiesce. BTW we push with the bypass pin in because we always have both A and B hydraulic system pumps ON. I have never thought that was a great plan but that's our procedure. While we are on the subject or procedure, it never ceases to amaze me how many different ways there are to fly the plane.
Starting next week or month we have a major rewrite of our Flight Handbook. New checklists and procedures. This will be the fourth major rewrite in the last 20 years. Maybe one day we'll get it right.
