Then again it doesn't say prohibited(I'm guessing, I'm not going to look it up..it isn't very important)...splitting hairs I know.
I agree.
I asked the line check airman why it says that. He gave the standard answer: "Because it's company protocol". I was looking for a more thorough answer, something like, "because a rolling moment may occur" or "because the flaps will come unhinged" or something like that. I have asked several people, including the head of Flight Standards, and no one seems to know the reason for it being in there.
