Hi 757,

Sadly I would doubt any pro pilot would do that, even at my low un-proffesional level it would be stupid to do anything to upset a stable approach. Just adding some power will change not only airspeed but also descent rate. I would never race while flying, especially during a critical phase of flight...and for me that is just keeping the safety of my instructor and me. I think it would come under the 'would be fun, but could lose my job over it' catagory.
Cheers.
tom.
