Alpagueur as a general I find that people who make a point of saying how much their FO's like flying with them are the ones to watch out for! The good skippers don't need to ladle on the self-adulation. You do a wonderful line in what they call in Top Gun (probably your favourite film) "blowing sunshine up your own ass". You don't actually have many flying hours and they're restricted to small-ish aircraft. Perhaps you should leave the conversation to the experienced pilots? You know, the ones with double your hours who've had twice as much time to learn from their mistakes (assuming you make mistakes, which I'm not sure you'd ever acknowledge anyway). You bear some of the hallmarks of the cadets we occasionally hire from the Low Countries. Fortunately once they've been given enough space to screw it up for themselves they tend to be a bit more humble and have less of the unjustified supreme self confidence.

BTW would you call 3000ft at 7 milescand 30 kts fast but stable at 500ft high energy?

BBTW Did you go to the KLM Academy?
