"Show your work" rofl *eyeroll*

Looks like Scary Mary is co-counsel on the Krebs suit.

Let's stick to the script that everyone knows is correct. At this point the PF is unknown, the PM is uknown, but the Captain was on the radio. So we suspect that the FO was flying but that's not 100%.

ground speed is all that matters when it comes to decent rates and glide paths . Airspeed is irrelevant. My comment was in reply to someone who said they couldn’t have had a 12 fps rate of decent and also be on a 3 deg path and that one of those has to be wrong when I fact they could absolutely both be true

Final results come out yet? Preliminary results? No. Yeah. This whole forum is public speculation. 90% of APC is bs opinions and speculation.

But, thanks for your forgiveness otherwise.

They were always going to sue. Your comment, about lawyers having a field day, was in response to Delta offering compensation. So how does them offering compensation result in lawyers having a field day

I knew that holding onto my old CRJ manual would come in handy some day. As someone who instructed on CRJs (200, 700, and 900) and has over 5000 hours in them, it was always a very bad idea to touch down with the thrust levers not at idle. As you can see from the GLD Deploy parameters, if you skip/bounce with power, you will get 2/3 dashed options. Then if you are airborne and chop the levers to idle that meets the last key trigger and the boards come up and you’re done flying at that point. We actually taught in the sims that if you landed with power and bounced that you either needed to maintain power to touchdown again or initiate a go-around. We stressed that you should never really land with power. Obviously not much of an issue in the 200 but the 7/9 we trained that when you heard the 10 ft RA call out you needed to cut to idle if you weren’t already there.

Been on this fleet, never saw what you are saying here.
Not even talked about as a technique.

Yeah I don’t think anyone realizes how good of a gig it is to sit in the sim and live in MSP and drive 20min to work. With their new rates and if you pick up two sim sessions in a day it’s fairly lucrative. Ain’t that special commuting to a junior base. Or even be junior in a senior base. Especially if you’re older.

What you are saying is incorrect. You said 12 fps aligns with a 3 degree descent at 140-145 knots. They weren't at 140-145 knots, so your speculation was incorrect. 12 fps is 720 fpm. The ground speed was 110 knots. To fly a 3 degree glideslope at 110 knots means you are descending at 550 fpm. The ADS-B data at 50 feet agl is 110 knots and 475 fpm. There is no way they were descending at 12 fps as you say AND were on a 3 degree glide path AND had a groundspeed of 110 knots. It almost as if there isn't enough data to come up with insane claims like "their flight path was X degrees" or "their descent rate was X fps."

I’ve been on the fleet too along with several others. On pretty much all of them, it was normal in gusty conditions to leave at least some power on until just before touchdown. I suspect you’re misinterpreting what Vito is getting at.
