I think it's time to move from lights etiquette to the finer points of rudder pedal position for aircraft terminators. I lay awake at night, wondering if I positioned them correctly for the next crew.

Result: you will often see an MD80 on final, at night, with the gear not yet extended, COMPLETELY DARK.

Different companies have different policies on how and when to turn the strobes on. Regardless I don't think it's a reason to get all wrapped around the axle. |
I just turn all my lights on right away so I don't forget. I think it ****es off the tug driver though...

Since we're talking about lights....TOTD goes to every single person that had to comment about our strobes being on...beacon MELd...NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT!

How about those poor SW F/O's!
Their arms must get really tired, turning those landing light switchs on and off all the way down final. Maybe that's why they fly such short, high and hot finals? No wonder they kill kittens when they get off the jet! |
Timbo,
It keeps them busy. Idle hands are the devil's workshop. |
