Jeffrey, 
When Dave read your email, his first comment was, "He thought he did a good job, and blamed the event on 
Wind shear, he actually thought he flew the plane acceptable" which is a little concerning. 
I think this is the route of Dave's issue, he's stubborn and can't admit error. 
When I mentioned kicking off the auto-Throttles and just fly the plane like a regular plane, )Stick and Rudder 
skills),. he said, "maybe we should "always" disengage the autoThrottles when the Wind Gust factor is greater 
than double the current steady wind"., (the wind was reported 10kts, gusting 28kts during our landing),. I told 
Dave, thats a good idea in theory, but you have to know when to disengage and not just Disengage when certain 
wind values are reported, this is part of his issue, every thing is black and white to him, very mechanical,. 
During today's landing in Brunswick, I had Dave disengage the auto throttle and autoPilot below 5000 ft, the 
weather was perfect, and he did a good job, once he figured out the proper power setting to maintain a given 
airspeed. He's fine without adversity,. 
To resolve, I told Dave i would get him some sim time next week in NY at Simflite when we arrive on 
Wednesday, to practice take off and Landings with no autothrottle and autopilot to get familiar with the handling 
characteristics of the GIV without engage in the autoPilot at 200ft and never touching the controls until the last 
200 feet for landing,. 
Dave's excuse for always engaging the automation, was, Simuflite encourages automation, however, since the 
Crash of Korean Air Boeing 777 in SanFranciso last year, when the pilot didn't notice the auto throttles where 
not engaged, and stalled on short final, Now, Flight Saftey is requiring all pilots to hand fly at least one approach 
to demonstrate flight skills. 
GIV update; 
We did engine runs tonight, and will accomplish more runs in the morning, after the Mechanics speak to Barry 
Kessler in Tech ops, we are still taking reading for techOps to evaluate, more info tomorrow. 
Thx 
Larry
