I still would! (in a 75 that is)
75 73 ....it makes no difference.
I can’t think of one scenario where one pilot going heads down, and then requiring the second pilot to also go heads down to execute, is better/ safer/ lower workload than using the MCP to fly to final from a base leg. I’m sure there are some but they escape me. As a general rule, fly the plane simply using the most appropriate level of automation to the runway. So what’s the most appropriate level on a base leg with a change to tracking? The MCP in my book.
