Oh man I didn't realize my answer to a respondent,'s question would be so contraversial!
I never mentioned anything about pushing the nose down during the flare. Performing the Boeing Push isn't scary or adventurous and it's been around since the 720s as prototypical jet for the 707s. If a pilot doesn't feel comfortable with it then don't do it...and because I'm no longer a line pilot but an tenured engineering professor nobody needs to worry about PA doing the Boeing Push on the 757. Thank God for that
