[old thread] Emergency. To declare or not to declare.

[Plane Nuts]

If you don't want to get penalized, declare the emergency, but only for FsP initiated emergencies where the co-pilot tells you something is
wrong.

The passengers will get anxious and your satisfaction level will decrease while you're dealing with the problem, but after you
successfully get the aircraft back on the ground safely, all will be forgiven by the pax and you'll gain big time points for dealing with the
problem correctly.
