As a passenger, that “jolt” as the power comes off is more like a slight sinking sensation. The first time I experienced it I nearly crapped myself! I read somewhere that pilots don’t even feel it but I can tell you it can scare nervous passengers.

Keiundra is a FO for a different regional. He went to ATP at the same location I went to. He thinks he is a “real pilot”, but he flies the beercan of the skies, the E145. Ha!

I particularly don’t like this comment…. “The approach was standard. I left the autopilot on until the runway came into view about 1300 feet AGL. Once I saw the runway I called out “runway in sight, going visual”. I clicked off the autopilot and continued following the glideslope.” Turn that damn autopilot and Flight director off and fly the DAMN airplane!
