I'm in!!!!!!!!!
Good point, or just simply are unaware of what they are doing. Ask a UAL 76 crew how a fuel system MISmanagement worked for them not too long ago coming out of Hawaii.
Pretty much ANY legacy airline now.

+1...the only time those go off from gate to gate is the check valve test on first flight of day or if an abnormal checklist calls for it, otherwise they are on, or selected on I should say, as they are not actually on all the time. I will say however that the gravity xflow is about the biggest pain in the @$$ on that airplane.

On the CRJ 700 you have to shut both fuel boost pumps during single engine taxi, or you get a large fuel imbalance. Maybe they forgot this and thought gravity cross flow would fix it faster. And also on all CRJs you can't sit more than 10 minutes with your lights on for cooling purposes. Sounds like these guys aren't too up on their systems knowledge. But hey, all DAL cares about is cheap feed...

On the 700/900 if one is on, both are on, you can't just turn off 1 side. And I thought our procedure was universal, since it came straight from Bombardier's engineers. But what do they know? I'm sure GoJets has smarter people in their training department.

Everybody who has flown with CA Zoolander knows he can't turn left, and is sensitive about that. Way to rub it in

Why are you so caustic all the time? I don't work for GoJet and was simply pointing out our procedure.
Get over yourself.
