Reminds me of the times where I complained to Robert about things not
working in IYP, and He'd say ".....do the checklists...."

By the way, this entire subject matter is explained in tremendous detail on PAGE 66 of the IYP Flight Deck Doc.

Setting the airspeed on a jet aircraft involves 2 parameters; the
air speed referred to as the Indicated Air Speed (IAS) and the
auto-throttle (AT). Thus, you can say, "Airspeed 250" to set the
IAS, but it will have no effect on the engines unless the Auto
Thottle is turned on by saying... "Auto Thottle On". However,
please keep in mind that Michelle will NOT perform any takeoff,
climb out, cruise, descent or auto-landing procedures unless she
is controlling the airseed.
Basically, I fail to understand how a BVI pilot can safely control
the complexity of a jetliner's airspeeds throughout all phases of
flight. Ergo, I suggest that you simply say to Michelle, "I'd
like you to handle the air speed".

Hi All,
I was trying to make an approach into Seattle this evening,
and ran into an issue with the airspeed of my 737-800. Despite
the IAS indicating 210 kts, I was still making 400+ over the
ground, and going way too fast for ATC to vector me for the
approach.
I kept saying “airspeed 210,” and IYP acknowledged, but it
didn’t seem to matter.
I’ve also heard this happen when using Radar Contact once or
twice, and thought it was an RC issue. It didn’t occur to me
that it might be IYP until I heard it live.
Any information or advice appreciated. I had to abort my
approach today for unrelated reasons, but it was still
frustrating.
Best,
