He kinda sounds like me, when I open the TOTD thread and see what it has become...
“I can’t control it. I can’t control it!”

The gear up call makes me cringe. As if the fo doesn’t know where the gear handle is, and which way up is.

Link me to a personal attack I’ve made, and I’ll request a ban and never return.

What? The FO is reaching for it before he even calls for it... and because he doesn't slam it up like a mongoloid that means he doesn't know which way up is? I nominate you for TOTD for "cringing" over that.

He was calling out the captain, not the FO. Read it again, you mongoloid.

You’re right, I hadn’t noticed the fo reaching before the gear up call. But the captain basically pointing to the handle, and doing the thumbs up motion as if to indicate which way the handle should go, is toolish in my opinion.
And yes, I was calling out the captain not the fo.

In the olden days the gear handle was down by the flap handle on the pedestal. You had to be specific, with the noise and all.
