maybe you should eat some beans


how wrong can you be? I've taught CRM.

allowing someone to take a leg (every other leg is standard at my airline) is fine. But allowing someone to screw up in an emergency and not step in WHEN NEEDED can lead to a crash.

IF one can hear someone yelling ''turn turn turn'' and the turn is becoming an out of control situation, someone better regain control.

I'm sorry you think I am a CRM nightmare. Perhaps the onus is on you to actually have a conversation.


In any situation, whether it is formal flying lessons or trading legs , crm is fine...but if control is being lost by one pilot, the other has to step in .


I remember briefing an approach to a new copilot on a 737. Wx was great and I encouraged him to handfly and be stable on the approach. He assured me he had previous jet time in a DC8.

He bounced the landing and FROZE , so there we were back up to 30 ' running out of airspeed and ideas.

I suppose I could have just sat there chanting: CRM CRM CRM.

I said: DO SOMETHING, add power.

he did nothing

I took the plane and landed it.

There is a difference between CRM and allowing a plane to crash.


You are quite wrong...if you admit it, it might show YOU have good CRM skills.
