Best one… go to about 3 minutes in…

I do not believe the controller knows about an RA (resolution advisory) until the complying pilot reports the RA… which is required (I.e. “XXX123 TCAS climb”).

Yeah, I’ve had a couple of RA’s over the years and never received a PPD. In fact, it’s REQUIRED we comply with the RA… even if you have traffic in sight.

The ATP is basically an IR ride in a twin with tighter standards.

Congrats!

Sure… you must train & check by today’s standards. But my whole point is that it just be a bit easier today with the tecnology.

And if you do this, as an additional bonus, you will be able to get a more true to life fuel burn. Filing direct, then getting a roundabout routing, can gum that up a bit.

Not so much like your parent / kid music scenario, I find it more like we no longer need engineers & navigators in our airplanes. Things have indeed become more automated and thoughtless. I don’t care how you spin it, doing a true NDB approach with the beacon off the field, in a crosswind, was...

It does suck, but…. Furloughs, base closures, going under.. All part of an aviation career.
