Dear Beagle,
I agree with your view.
Some people have the tendency to take things by pride, and they feel proud having the perception that in doing a low-drag approach they are saving a lot of money for their company.
In addition, they get upset , whenever they have the impression that somebody is “obstructing” them.
Bear in mind that I am not "tagging" the originator of this topic by all means.
But ,this is a fact, and I have witnessed this thing before, also within my collegues.
Safe flying to all
