B737 Speedbrake use question
When you use speedbrake, do you make or is it recommended to make general call out such as 'speedbrake flight detent' ?
The company I fly for, making too many 'check' callouts and 'yes sirs' inside cockpit which really is ridiculous. Even emphasize things that are not mentioned in POM. When I watch videos on youtube and I do not see procedures too much complicated on foreign carriers. Dont know why.
Also, can we only use speedbrake when throttle is ARM or you are descending with level change?
Last time on my simulator session, FMC message popped up stating 'Drag Required' and noticed throttle was all the way down at IDLE.
Your comments and ideas will be greatly appreciated,
