I replied, "You want me to look something up that isn't there?"
Part of the "Horrible Hundred".

For every FO that uses the speedbrake, I've got 2 CAs that will open descent and level off 6-9 miles before the next required altitude change. There are sh1tty pilots in both seats. Don't take it personal.
