Do you fly any with a yoke shaker? Or auto thrust levers?

Sometimes individuals in the cockpit think they are. I remember one Captain years ago whose first name Lloyd had been changed by others to the nickname Lord. It was appropriate.

Good point. If people thought it was merely God speaking, they wouldn’t pay attention.

Dang. Things must be going pretty well if we're going to whine about petty nonsense like this. You do know not *every* gripe deserves public attention, right? Why dont we save our acrimony for ALPA reps selling bad TA's, company folks that ban scotch on International deadheads, and that dude who wants us all to wear long sleeve shirts and Breitlings. <Psst, nobody can see your Breitling if you're wearing the long-sleeve shirt.>

We should all take some notes from Captain Dave, I am all too familiar with how Alan feels in the first clip.

All flights end “on the ground”, one way or another. Those which are by “landing” include most of the survivable ones.

I agree with you, Denny.

Some end up in the water, though
