Not a thing of the too distant past. I’ve been shouted at on the Flightdeck by a former Airbus TC now training on the 777 with an almost universally negative rep (initials JD - could be a well known Canadian rapper) for flying an approach in managed speed and waiting until the flap was out to select 180 instead of immediately winding a speed below green dot into the window. I quote “F***ing select the speed, you’re not in f***ing easyJet now”. The tone was unquestionably not jocular. Most of the trainers are absolutely fine but there’s still some difficult characters out there.

You can add IAD and BOS to that in the summer. Not that you’ll want to for credit purposes!!
