Flaps? Where we're going we don't need flaps..

All these chairs.. this one is low, this one is high, and this one is really really soft!!

Speaking of the chairs, seems most of the time when I sit down they're either on the floor or so high I have to tilt my head just to sit. Who are these vertically challenged and endowed people?

Sooo.....
At compass you were allowed to use flaps 4 on approach and your landing callout was "Flaps 5(full), set Vapp, landing checklist?

If so, republic does not allow flaps 4 as an intermediate setting on approach as there are no approach warnings as it's strictly a takeoff setting.

And we recently adopted this stupid "Flaps X, Set Vapp, landing checklist". There has also been a few other things over the last year that we have changed that you guys were already using.

Or the right cheek is lower than the left... who has lop sided glutes? Or sits on the right cheek more than the left... come on, even out the sitting pressure!!

This is one of the dumbest things I have heard in a long time.

We used to use flaps 4 but now it’s a no no. Landing with ice speeds and ATC trying to slow you down can cause a big headache hence why a lot of us used to it. Now I guess those slow to 160 is gonna be met with a lot of unables especially as we get into the winter months. I guess you just throw out the gear and go to flaps 5? Just don’t forget to set them to full for landing by 1000 feet if you have to do a flaps full landing.

He was being sarcastic due to the YX pilot saying they’ve adopted some call outs and flows CPZ uses.
