A manager at Porter wants the guys to go from runway to 10 degrees now on rotation. Some guys in the training dept with their heads up their asses go right along with it. They even put out a bulletin on it.

It is not normal.

A lot of guy on the line know better and fly a typical rotation rate but a lot are right into the idea that this should be done and go out there throwing 10+ degree per second rotation... and this is what Porter management wants. Tail strike was a matter of time...
