Squawk 7700's post is well worth reading, and pondering.
Possible "unintended outcomes" of FOQA programs? Standard human reaction, I'd guess.
Organizational point of emphasis: "We have to stop doing X."
Human response: "OK, I'll start doing Y since it reduces the odds of doing X ..."
Or are there some other American cowboy cultural attributes at play here?
Is there some inherent British or European stupidity that induces posts like this, or was it just one person and a brain not firing on all cylinders at the time the "submit reply" button was selected?
Even Naval Aviation emphasized not landing on the nose gear, especially the T-28.
Indeed. Nothing like 48" (52.5 at the sea level stop) of manifold pressure during a dawn launch.
