Yes you’re correct, I stated later that the only EICAS message was at 50 knots with 1 source of AC power if
you read through the comments.

What’s the problem? Isn’t Southwest the gold standard of taxi speeds to adhere to?

How else are you supposed to underblock, then pick up OT and taxi slow and overblock, and time out and have the OT trip dropped and paid for?

you can only do that if you drive the jet like a rally car.

SWA taxi speed is, for the most part, only slightly below V1.

If you taxi on the #2 engine you turn the HYD1 ON.

Misconnecting at an outstation will usually do the trick and you still get paid to not fly. “Work smarter, not harder”

I've been in this business for many, many years. I was at Eagle during the Saab and ATR days and thus have firsthand knowledge of how much better Envoy is than it's predecessor. We truly are AMERICAN now. Optimism is good, you should try it. I also have the numbers and fact planning of American Airlines on my side as well.
DAMMIT!

I knew we had chewed some of the same dirt. Im a ex SAAB driver from old Eagle.

I was pointing out that has nothing to do with what happens when you screw up the APU start and eng shutdown. You have nothing left, no matter where your pump switches are.

Well to my knowledge, there is nothing in Envoy’s AOM 1 or 2, or QRH that teaches that load shedding will occur at 50 kts with one AC power source. I’m also don’t recall that ever being taught in the CBT’s for recurrent training either. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

There is a “warning” bubble someplace in the AoM. It isn’t taught nor is it a limitation or procedure, although I am sure one is incoming.
