I was talking purely for the CEO. We don’t have NEO yet. What drives me nuts if that some skippers will slow down to .76 in Moderate turbulence at very high altitude when the managed speed of .78 was nicely in the middle of the coffin corner unaware of the danger of flying close to green dot at high altitude. Or the guys flying exactly at the penetration speed of 275kt around 20 000 feet because it’s on the checklist when obviously slowing down would be much smoother... SMH.

@t Tubby Linton: That’s a great article. One of the best I have read from Safety First.
