I asked him why? He said there is no limit and told that I sound like I am questioning his experience.
After around 3000ft he changed his mind and pulled OP CLB lol.



I think it's not an issue but I was asking if it was Prudent. Landing in Chiang Mai we were heavy (73T GW) and Vapp was 144, we had a 7kts tailwind and he changed the Vapp to 147
During approach he was flying, maintaining 800-900 FPM, had a sink in the middle of the glide and went briefly to 1100fpm, but corrected for it.
I was thinking why not just keep the computed Vapp since we also have a tailwind.

And one of his "techcedures" is he changes so many things in the FMS without telling his FO because experience. When I tried to ask a few things to learn more he got offended lol.



Well he doesn't fly with PROG, PLAN, or PERF, he flies with Alpha Call up and types VRTAmax on 1st line, sc1 , sc2, sc3, on the following. I don't know why we need to check the landing g's of the previous crew during cruise. Would be nice to see my track miles during descent tho lol.
Worse and worse...just speak to your flight safety guys.
