You're a flap minimalist on landing. MD-88



Congrats Jungle!

*Fire away. I've never flown an augmented fight at Delta so maybe it wasn't possible.
Dunno. All they were supposed to fly was ATL-EWR-SEA. Should have been simple enough, right?

Jungle, congrats on the 88. Since I know you're coming off one of them Embraer jets with the STOP-RUN-START switches, so I thought as a gift from me to you I'd give you some of my notes on the 88 and I'm going to start with the Before Start flow. So first, here is a picture of an 88, and next is the 88 before start flow.



Let me know if you have any questions and remember this key phrase... Technique Only.

I guess the "blizzard" hit a few hours after the super bowl. It'd been a lot more interesting if it had hit a few hours earlier.

Congrats, LongBeachDog!

Please, sit back and let RockwellCollins explain how your new airplane works:

Congrats Junglebus..just remember ignition when starting the engines on a 88 if you've been flying the 90 for several legs!

It's about what that CD sounds like when it gets to the autopilot panel and FMS. You know the CD, "The MD-88 in 862 Simple Steps."

When it gets to flight controls you feel like you're watching this...

Hahaha! I was searching for pictures of complex diagrams and settled on the retro encabulator. I was hoping someone would post that family circus cartoon that is the flows on the 88.

Then the broncos wouldn't have be able to throw the game, amirite? (there are conspiracy people of course that are touting that...)
