Setting a +4 or +8 for takeoff makes sense to get a inclusive shot of the weather out there, but flying around with it?

My understanding was a long time ago it was policy the gain be +4 for the flight, which is why so many leave it at +4, not because guys are doing it specially for take off, or +8, and then adjusting in the air.

In the end, who cares. It was a joke about guys doing the same flows and calls outs from 20 years ago. Just like turning the tubes down doesn’t save them from burn in.
