Does anyone do it in the 900ER on the line? Not being flip, genuinely curious. I wonder if you did a Flaps 15 landing and banged the tail if the company would ask why you landed Flaps 15? Do you guys at DAL have the degree of focus placed on tailstrikes as we do at UAL? It was THE big thing that they talked about when I transitioned from the Bus. Well, that and don't go direct with Sabre =).
Maybe I just don't hear about it, but I also don't see you guys (or Alaska for that matter) running them off the runway like we do either. Makes me curious what the issue is that we seem to be having in our house.
