Another bonus is that in a category this size you often the know the guys you fly with. I also set the stab trim - aren't we supposed to? Then again I never had a captain complain or question me about it and I am also ignorant on the whole "Fletch issue." Of course I am one of the few, the proud, who use the 'Very Seldom" button, AKA VS, AKA vertical speed.

Got to agree. The 73N CA's in LA rock. Know them all and its always like a squadron reunion when we fly. Very laid back group for the most part.

I also use VS a lot and Alt Intv, or whatever it says. No 'fletch' here.

Merry Christmas brothers from other mothers! Have a good one and fly safe.
