At least the false psychological feeling of "doing something" flying the barber pole to theoretically shave off 2 minutes, even assuming that doesn't close the gap enough to make ATC slow you sooner anyway.

I'm one of the most pro-commuter pilot out there. But sometimes commuters can get silly about things like that.

this. It’s all about getting off the gate and off the ground early.

I love flying max speed on a transcon so a commuter can waste 1500lbs of fuel to get 2 mins more ground time :rolleyes:

The commuter comment might have been referring to the number of Jumpseats available in the future if dal replaces 320’s with 73’s.

Leave when ready to screw the tight commuters.

The real MVP is the Captain who, after a 65 minute taxi out, safely flew the 737 to a 0132 block in, with multiple deadheaders on their last leg on board.

Leave when ready only applies to ATL inbound. Not sure how many tight commuters are there.

Yeah, I wasn’t sure where the OP was going with that comment. It’s not often you can dial the speed up and save more than a couple minutes.
