I'll say the same thing I have been saying for the last 20 years. I can see no reason why the circling approach still exists in the 21st century. It is a manoeuvre that is not preferred and for that reason less likely to be proficient along with the rejected takeoff at V1. Anything not routinely performed will be poorly executed. It doesn't make any sense to do anything other than a straight in continuous descent and landing, or and to a lesser degree a visual circuit and landing. The probability of both flight crew members being proficient for a specific circling approach is extremely remote.
