But besides all that, I hate to "call someone out" but how did neither you nor your captain know about this regulation and that when ATC gives you a higher speed you're supposed to slow down at 10,000 feet? It's one of the most basic rules out there in 121 "jet flying". It's a sad state of affairs when the 300 hour wonder FO with his 1500 hour "Old salt" captain can't operate an airplane carrying 50 passengers.

Who said I was in a CRJ or ERJ? Who said I was a 300 hour wonder? I probably have way more hours than you, just not in a jet. I know my captain probably has your time times 5.

I know I have heard ATC "allow" people to keep their speed up below 10,000 many times, as well as request that they do. I had just personally never been in the situation.

Imagine there had be a loss of separation due to your complete failure to comply with FARs (and exceed the speed limit by FIFTY KNOTS)...
Loss of seperation???? Because I was going faster than the regulations allow? I don't think the regulations have ANYTHING to do with my aircarft limitations.
