They're the same ones that scare me in the x-winds, man-handle the controls, fly an out-of-trim aircraft, and wonder why a lowly FO can fly circles around them...and these are guys

Oh brother... another wonder RJ FO who thinks he's chuck yeager because he's hand flying outside the recommended procedures. Look at me mom I'm handflying a barbie jet! YeAAAeeee! If you want to hand fly go find some /A IFR job. You're just making the poor CAs job that's done that flight about 1000 times more difficult.
