Just going to quote it before you edit it away. I am not done with you.

And you are quite fine with that,high speed clacker? I am quite familiar with high altitude flight issues and i really dont understand how you could come here and tell us that having intermittent clacker is operationally wise or professionnaly acceptable...Did you note this excursion into the technical log?

Does you airline monitor your excesses?(QAR)..

Concerning temp increase,and i only flew this type for about 9 years on the left seat,,is that a 1-2 increase in temp can reduce your max by 100 ft...5c is plenty enough to get you in the lower band and be in an underthrust condition.

Again,i have never got into a high speed or low speed on the 737,call me conservative but i rather have my coffee without going into the clacker,save fuel and deal with what you describe as light turbulence.

Maybe your cabin crew tend to overfill your coffee,since your 'light turbulence' at Fl360 wa a potential tie ruining scenario

You seem a perfect fit for a cost 55 airline...
...and yes, light turbulence is a potential tie ruiner. If there is moderate turbulence (unsecured objects flying around in the cockpit and cabin) I ask for descent.
