I believe it's spelled "sundae." ND is right, everyone here needs a sundae.

What did you expect American to do?

I hope the company realizes the need for better appreciation of its workers but that's not what ULCCs like you and Allegiant are based on. All I hear is CEOs and COOs chirping to shareholders about the need for cost controls. You and me are cost units. Nothing more.

Any company especially an airline need to treat employees and customers like they matter are take their behind out of business.

you are correct NorthDakota is mistaken. but like others have said "more than one way to skin a cat", just pay attention to what your doing, and it doesn't really matter how you do what.

I'm all for the different ways to skin the French feline- and certainly hold no ill will towards ND.... the one "technique" in question is just bizarre- but I only had to throw MCT out there just once to fix it.... Makes me curious....

Oh- but am curious about his headset/ trash comment.... lol-

All in good fun kids....

BTW- took an HOUR to get an amendment the other day.... L-O-L....

He is not incorrect in certain situations. If you pull for open climb and then immediately reduce speed (to increase climb rate) Fifi will often times reduce thrust initially. I would guess that is what he is referring to.

Sure- if you select a slower speed before the climb has started....

BTW- no one mentioned open climb....

He mentioned managed climb then selecting .75m. Managed vs open is irrelevant when no constraints exist.

Yes, I'm aware of that
