I called for the after takeoff checklist once clean out of habit, which they ran on their own. After flap retraction, I pulled the power from takeoff power to MCT and pitched to accelerate and then maintain 200 knots. While still in the climb, they have you execute a crosswind turn. They then give you the downwind turn. Once on the downwind, and at 3000 ft, they ask you to trim the jet off, and then give the FO the aircraft so you can brief your approach. Once done briefing, you get the jet back and get your vectors to final, a slow to 180 kts, and a descent to 2000ft. Speeds are either directed by ATC, or suggested by your highly competent FO. Flaps and gear extension are also suggested by the FO. I called for the before landing checklist with the gear, which was also out of habit. For the approach itself, I stayed on instruments until we broke out. I then switched to a composite cross-check to ensure I didn’t duck under. I used a slight wing low technique for the crosswind with no issues. They expect a maximum effort braking once on the runway. I think the big picture for this section...
