As a very inexperienced and badly trained second officer I bounced at home base with a trainer in the left hand seat.....not knowing what to do I did as I would have on a Cherokee...kept the attitude but didn't apply power as in the outfit we weren't allowed...that was pnf.
The result was two flight controls stuck valve lights and various other warnings as well as a generator or two tripping..
After Sir had ascertained that we could roll to the gate he started laughing...that was my debriefing...in hindsight he obviously didn't know what to do.
The chief steward entered the cockpit and screeched after sir pointed at me and said "we're not flying with you again mate".
We all hid from the passengers as they disembarked.
Ps I've deleted the expeltives as I don't want to upset anyone
