Cool

We recently company-wide changed to using Flap 5 for all take-offs, to reduce risk of tailstrike with Flap 1 (unless Flap 1 reqd for perf ,in which case Capt's only T/OFF and a Capt's report duh. . . ) I guess next month we can look forward to another FCI telling us to make all T/OFF with Flap 15, hell no lets make that 25. And all landings with Flap 5 a la Skavsta for good measure. Ah . . .good piloting technique combined with a modicum of experience , don't you remember it well.
