I remember a few years back flying the Base Leg Port (i.e. harbour) visual 3.7 degrees approach onto Mykonos runway 16. Surface wind velocity was 180/35-40, on right Base leg wind velocity (according to the A320 ND) was 240/55. I initiated the turn onto Final at what most pilots would suggest was far too early, in fact it was a little late. Managed to establish on Final just slightly left of the inbound track at 1.5 nm before touchdown, within stable approach criteria and on the 3.7 degree approach angle. ATC stopped transmitting to all traffic during my efforts to avoid distraction. Thanks JMK.
At the end of the day, I’d say look out of the window and keep your manual flying skills honed outside of Commercial aviation if at all possible. Enjoy!
