Awesome!!!!!!

Simply out of curiosity anybody know who the over-rotating culprit was?

I've wondered that too, I thought it was just somebody at my company, but from the looks of it, Bombardier must have issued some kind of warning bulletin about it because everyone is doing FD 10 or no FD from what I can tell.

Can we blame it on Mesa? :D

I flew with a CA in the training department who told me it was from Bombardier, and it was the result of somebody over rotating a Challenger.

I believe a couple of accidents led to this. The first was a CRJ-200 in China which crashed after taking off with ice on the wings and over-rotated. The second was the Challenger crash with Dick Ebersol form NBC sports.

Doesn't change the fact that it's a stupid procedure.

You could be right but I thought both those crashes occurred in 2004 and the new procedure was handed down in April/May of this year.
