I have to say I take offence to the insinuation regards 146 drivers
I've been on line several months now on 330, can't say that the basic energy management is much different in principle. Sure, the 146 could do 250 kts to 8 miles and be at Vref 120 +/- at 3 miles, but when you change types it really isn't difficult to learn the differences with the slippery aeroplane.
In fact, the only high energy, unstable approach I've seen on line was on the CAPTAINS sector, and the guy has never been near a 146 in his life. Chew that one over boys. Oh yes, I did give plenty of hints, but they were ignored

Giving us all a bad rap for the misdemeanours of a few is not really on.....
