Behind aircraft or not understanding descent management?
When I first started flying over 20 years ago, I was sometimes criticized for being behind the aircraft during the descent and approach, as I guess some of us were in the beginning. However, in hindsight, I wasn't behind the aircraft but instead, I just didn't understand descent management. After seeing this being a common problem with new pilots on a jet, I wonder if "being behind the aircraft" is a common misidentification of the instructor of what the actual problem is. Ideas?
