Improper and ineffective use of a clutch?

I was thinking lack of oil…but clutch does that too.

Seriously mods - Delete thread -

Actually yes. That and improper grammar and punctuation. However, in this instance I was referring to how Peter Griffin would say, “Ya wanna know what really grinds my gears?”

What? No! This is gold.

Retitle the thread “Grammerminbshipp”.

I get the post and agree with what you’re trying to say but this line jumped out at me.

It’s not about saving the company thousands, it’s about getting the paying customers to their destination. To me knowing when to bug out vs going for it is it’s what separates regionals from majors.

Because inexperienced regional crews push in while experienced mainliners go elsewhere? Or because inexperienced regional crews divert while experienced major pilots make it in? Or is it that experienced pilots work at each alongside pilots with less and more experience in equipment with varying degrees of capabilities in dynamic environments that change quickly making it impossible to say, “that was a regional move” or “that was a mainline” move?

"Well, alright now, daddy. Why don't you tell us about when you were a war hero? You flew those pursuit jobs, you could land in a parking lot. Well, I'm settin' down over 200,000 pounds of 707. I want somethin' under my wheels that's plenty long and mighty dry."

I had a college prof once who was proud of having flown an entire career at continental and only diverting once.

he then taught us about hazardous attitudes.

I would not have impressed him. I diverted my 3rd flight after OE.
