Love that. I agree ..."Stand 'em up."<br /><br />Love that. I agree with the narrator--flying an airplane without being able to handle the throttles directly is counter to everything I've ever done in flying.<br /><br />One of my pet peeves (after 30 years as a professional communicator) is the phrase "roger that" (or "copy that"). Every "roger" is, by definition, roger "that". I don't know why it's propagated so much through the amateur communicator community. I've been gone from the professional community for 20 years, so I can't testify as to whether it's crept into the argot of some of the bottom dwellers (we weren't ALL aces). But it grates on me every time.<br /><br />Great video. I've ridden jump seat many times, and this is an excellent example of crew coordination and professionalism. Props (if you'll pardon the pun) to the crew.<br /><br />LRod<br />ZJX, ORD, ZAU retired<br />LRodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17181295131853124169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-89152619088212095632017-09-24T09:33:55.867-04:002017-09-24T09:33:55.867-04:00EB,
