I see you have ore important things to discuss now based on your companies newly announced altitude restrictions and the reasons for them. So you're correct when you said "Skywest isn't any other regional, it's Skywest" Lesson for the day, Junior. When you talk smack, a humbling is soon to follow. Carry on
For real. Every pilot at SkyWest would have been hired by any other regional, but not every pilot at any other regional would have been hired by SkyWest. Sucks, but life isn't fair.

[QUOTE=Is offline;1912393]Now that's ironic coming from someone who works at the fl410 club.[/QUOTE
I never was a part of that club. I started at Mesaba, and thankfully the Pinnacle training and testing culture no longer exists. High altitude stalls were not taught at that time.

[QUOTE=gojo;1912799]Wrong again. They were taught, but they changed the recovery procedure just like every other regional did after that. The pinnacle culture is still there. Otherwise the sim instructors wouldn't have their panties in a wad complaining that AQP was too easy.

Funny all these playa haters talking smack coming from airlines that actually crashed a 200 playing around at 410 and another who stalled one out and by the grace of baby jesus got one engine running before it melted down. Then there's the guys running off runways in a crosswind and plowing into 757's.

[QUOTE=Is offline;1912841]Really, do tell? The AQP program is FAA endorsed just like all AQP programs. You X Pinnacle guys crack me up. And you're wrong, Mesaba taught stall recovery the same way it's taught now as I believe mainline did. So not every airline had to re adapt. You guys just need to move on and get over yourselves

That's funny because they changed the standards for the recovery in the PTS after that. There was an altitude previously and that was how it was taught at mesaba too. I still know a lot of people there.

[QUOTE=Is offline;1912884]And how did this topic come up with X Mesaba people? I can tell you that when I flight instructed I taught it differently than Mesaba did. We did clearing turns and set up for the stall (knew it was coming) and during the recovery concentrated on minimal altitude loss and airspeed not so much. We were basically right on the edge through much of the recovery. Same way they taught it at Pinnacle and a few other regionals, not all. Mesaba taught it as a surprise event, although you still knew it was coming, with the focus on airspeed and acceptable altitude loss. Meaning if you got outside PTS standards but were correcting towards them it was acceptable.
