U sure it wasn't a fuse that was lit?
Only reason I am in the left seat is cause I can name all the color coded sections of USA Today. That will be your upgrade oral.

9E has had one hull loss. Jefferson City. Onto your next excellent point about their training department.

I always thought we had to fold a release so it sits above the FMS nicely.

The instructor should have lit into him for not knowing company procedures, CA will state abort or continue. It's as clear as that. I expect a competent non-fly when my tickets are on the line at a jeopardy event.

The Captain is usually paid well for that added pressure.

"Stay on the safe side and abort" assumes that aborting is the safer option, which is not always the case.
