Pre-CRM, I briefed and was briefed. Post-CRM, I brief and am briefed. Pre-CRM, if my briefing suggested I was about to do something a bit dodgy, I'd conclude with... "the first person to yell 'FAAAARK' and we're outta there". Post-CRM, it's the same deal... it always seems to work for the bloke I fly with, as much as it works for me.
Oh yeah... sometimes I was the first one to yell "FAAAARK" and I was always straight onto the throttles and into a 10 degrees up pitch!
Maybe I've been ahead of me time all this time?
