I've never heard of a "squeaker" landing.

I've never done a "greaser" landing.

Most of my landings are "woooooah! I'm falling out of the sky! Where's that fuckin' throttle? Woooah, need some rudder!" landings.

-istp :)

It all depends on the context. If you're still in training, then it's a normal way to describe a landing by anthropomorphizing the landing. Squeaker being an obvious near screw-up, while a greaser would be as if the runway was greased so you didn't even notice the landing.

If you're out of flight school, then use of the terms has a different connotation, it means you're a total dork.

It's for the person being tested...

A squeaker is someone who uses projection when he or she screws up...

A greaser knows the World and puts some cash into the examiners hands...

Maybe a greaser is someone who can consistently land a Cessna trainer on the nose wheel and never bend the fire wall?

Squeaker is the sound of your morning crap after a night of eating chineese food.
Greaser is the sound of your morning crap after a night of drinking draught.
So what is the correct CRM etiquette following the Captain's visit to the loo following either of the two examples above?

This is the flight training forum, should we don the oxygen masks?

High Coeff of Friction = Squeek, Low Coeff of Friction = Greaser.

For example, hot summer day v.s. wet winter day.
