there’s a reason that the new “oral” has specific topics listed in it. Why? Because back in the day, scab check airmen and over zealous PI’s had their pet subjects, and if an answer wasn’t quickly produced to their satisfaction, they would down a guy. ALPA got involved and purged these D bags from TK, but some of the rationale on this thread is exactly the same crap they would spew. Here’s a hint: GLS’s are rare, regardless of whether or not it’s in the book. We have bold items and QRC items for a reason. So guys can’t get on a soap box and lol down their noses at line guys who don’t memorize the stuff. My point’s been made. Time to put to is to bed, fellers.
good point I’ll take that to my next event. Santa Clause is right here for you.
may e that’s why people in this thread think training sucks.......

GLS used to really be a pushed option in the ATIS at IAH. All of our 737s aren’t capable but used to ask for it for a few years when we had the option. In all aspects, just an ILS as far as flying it. Not difficult. Saw a number of anomalies during day VFR that required intervention so not really a fan. RNAV RNP and one day auto land from it will really be where we are headed IMO. I personally love the RNPs from downwind IAF. Quiet on the radio and the 737 flies them well.

Lee- agree and correct on all points. Especially the rnp. Regardless of how many times people try to misrepresent my position, I know what I know, what I have to know, what I should know, and most importantly—what I don’t know. All the rhetoric about wanting spoon fed, Santa etc is just the ramblings of people who know they’re wrong.

Cute. It seems all you have left is smart ass comments and trolling. As for me, I’d say anything I’ve said here at TK. I GUARANTEE you wouldn’t talk to me like this at TK. I guess that’s the greatness of web forums, huh?

Iv told plenty of pilots that they need to open a book and study. If your book knowledge is weak I will be the first to tell you, that’s my job. I’m not here to give you a participation trophy I’m here to make sure my family is safe on your plane. If that hurts your feelings then so be it.
