I'm not the most experienced pilot here, nor do I claim to have more than mediocre airmanship.

However, one aspect of airmanship I try to teach to CPL candidates is to achieve (in decreasing order of priority)

Safety
Comfort
Economy
and
Expediency

in the correct balance for commercial operations. If they can achieve a good balance of the above they'll go far in the world.

NB: Comfort is pax comfort - so they'll want to fly with you again. Economy is so there will be money enough to get airborne on Monday morning, and Expediency is doing whatever makes the pilot's life easier.

regards to all,
O8
