Of course we are all trained at United to fly it… but unless an emergency makes it absolutely necessary I won’t be doing it on a WB plane I’m CA on… other CAs can do whatever they want. If the Threat forward discussion is done properly prior to descent then the same decision should probably be made… not worth the risk “IF” other options available at EWR.
